Malnutrition: Fed or Misled? The Truth Beyond Food

Most of us believe malnutrition belongs somewhere else, to famine, poverty or distant humanitarian crises. It doesn't. A stunted child. A pregnant mother with anaemia. An office-goer living on ultra-processed food.

An adolescent battling obesity. They may all have one thing in common: malnutrition.

India's Nutrition Man challenges one of the greatest misconceptions of our time, that malnutrition is only about too little food. Drawing on science, public health, policy and global evidence, the book traces the many faces of malnutrition, from hidden hunger to obesity, and why this silent crisis persists across rich and poor nations alike. Balanced and deeply human, this book is an invitation to rethink not just what we eat, but how we understand nourishment itself.

Essential reading for healthcare professionals, students, policymakers and anyone who wants to eat and live more informedly.
