Humans require food and nutrients to survive on a daily basis. In addition to being a crucial part of the healthcare delivery system, nutrition plays a crucial role in preserving peoples' health and wellbeing. Clinical outcomes are influenced by an individual's dietary status. Six categories—carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals, vitamins, and water—are used to classify essential nutrients. Malnutrition results from an imbalance in nutrient intake. There are numerous definitions of "malnutrition," yet there is still no agreement on any of them. The two main disorders, marasmus and kwashiorkor, are discussed in the context of malnutrition, which traditionally refers to a lack of calorie intake or nutritional inadequacies. Whereas kwashiorkor is usually associated with protein shortage, marasmus primarily pertains to energy or calorie deprivation.
