Project Abstract

<p> Malnutrition is a prevalent global health issue that affects millions of individuals, particularly in developing countries. This project aims to investigate the effects of malnutrition on immune function. The immune system plays a crucial role in defending the body against pathogens and maintaining overall health. However, malnutrition can compromise immune function, leading to increased susceptibility to infections and other immune-related disorders. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and analysis of relevant studies, this project seeks to explore the mechanisms by which malnutrition impacts immune function and identify potential interventions to mitigate these effects. The findings of this study will contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between malnutrition and immune function, ultimately informing strategies for improving immune health in malnourished populations. <br></p>
