Women account for 60 percent of India’s hungry population.
The statistics remain disproportionately against women in the country. This stems from a patriarchal mindset that favours boy child over girl child, resulting in undernutrition or malnutrition of the girl child. According to a report, 51.4% of women in reproductive age between 15 to 49 years are anaemic.
Worldwide, women account for 60% of the total hungry population. In India, the nutrition of children is particularly worse because of the state of their mothers. “36 percent of Indian women are chronically under-nourished, from their childhood itself. This can be attributed to the fact that girl children are less wanted in a patriarchal society, where men receive food before women. Data from Bihar and Madhya Pradesh shows that girls represent up to 68 per cent of the children admitted to programmes for the severely malnourished,” as per a UNICEF report.

Nutrition for kids is based on the same principles as nutrition for adults. Everyone needs the same types of nutrients — such as vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, protein and fat. Children, however, need different amounts of specific nutrients at different ages.
