abstract: The last National Family Health Survey of India
(NFHS-3, 2005-06)2 provides clear evidence of the
poor state of nutrition among young children,
women, and men in India and the lack of progress
over time, based on measurements of height and
weight, anaemia testing, testing for the iodization
of household cooking salt, utilization of nutrition
programmes, and information on child feeding
practices and vitamin A supplementation. Young
children in India suffer from some of the highest
levels of stunting, underweight, and wasting
observed in any country in the world, and 7 out
of every 10 young children are anaemic.
