Nutrition in toddlers

Abstract

This issue of CME is dedicated to nutrition and
malnutrition in young children. It is an important
topic in paediatric medicine and child health, because
toddlers start feeding independently and lifelong
feeding patterns for health are thus set in motion.
Malnutrition as a result of protein or energy deficiency or chronic
illness is relatively common in this age group, even in our modern
world.
