Empowering families and health cadres in stunting prevention through nutrition education and assistance for toddler growth and development

Background: Stunting remains an important public health concern because it can adversely affect children's physical growth, cognitive development, and future quality of life. Family involvement and the active participation of community health cadres are essential for improving nutritional practices and ensuring regular monitoring of toddler growth and development. Objective: This community empowerment program aimed to improve the knowledge and practical capacity of families and health cadres in preventing stunting through nutrition education and assistance in monitoring toddler growth and development. Methods: The program was implemented using a participatory approach involving families with toddlers and community health cadres. Activities included nutrition education, counseling on balanced diets and appropriate complementary feeding, demonstrations of child growth measurement, developmental monitoring, and individualized assistance. Participants' knowledge was assessed before and after the educational sessions using structured questionnaires. Growth monitoring included measurements of body weight and height/length, while developmental assistance emphasized age-appropriate stimulation and early identification of developmental concerns. Results: The program showed an improvement in participants' knowledge regarding stunting prevention, balanced nutrition, appropriate feeding practices, and growth monitoring. Families demonstrated greater awareness of the importance of regular growth and development monitoring and appropriate nutritional practices. Health cadres also showed improved capacity to provide nutrition education, conduct basic anthropometric monitoring, identify children at risk of growth problems, and encourage families to utilize community-based health services regularly. Conclusion: Nutrition education combined with family assistance and strengthened health cadre capacity is a practical community-based strategy for supporting stunting prevention. Continuous mentoring and regular growth and development monitoring are recommended to sustain behavioral improvements and facilitate early detection of nutritional and developmental problems.

Edukasi Gizi Dalam Pencegahan Stanting Tingkat Keluarga Literature Review: Nutrition Education for Stunting Prevention at the Family Level: A Literature Review

Introduction: Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that remains a public health challenge, particularly in developing countries. This condition not only impacts children's physical growth but also impacts cognitive development, productivity, and the long-term quality of human resources. One of the main factors contributing to stunting is mothers' lack of knowledge and attitudes regarding nutritional needs, parenting patterns, and appropriate childcare practices. Objectives: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of nutrition education interventions and health promotion approaches in improving mothers' knowledge and attitudes as an effort to prevent stunting at the family level. Method: This study employed a literature review method. Articles were searched through the Google Scholar database and SINTA-indexed national journals for the 2021–2026 period. Inclusion criteria included quantitative research, full-text articles, and relevance to nutrition education interventions in stunting prevention. Based on the selection process, five articles met the criteria for systematic analysis using a narrative synthesis approach. Result: A literature review shows that nutrition education interventions, whether through direct counseling, health education media, or health promotion-based approaches, significantly improve mothers' knowledge and attitudes regarding stunting prevention. Structured, interactive, and ongoing education has been shown to drive changes in family behavior toward better nutrition practices. Conclusion: Family-based nutrition education has proven effective as a stunting prevention strategy. Sustainable integration of nutrition education programs into maternal and child health services is essential to support stunting reduction and improve the quality of future generations..

Double burden of malnutrition at household level: an analysis of undernourished child and overweight mother pairs in India during 2005–2021

Clear socio-demographic pattern is observed in the emergence and transition of the double burden of malnutrition at community level. However, co-existence of underweight and overweight problems in the same household appears to be perplexing, being associated with completely diverse factors. Hence, this study examines the prevalence and progression of underweight child/overweight mother (UCOM) and stunted child/overweight mother (SCOM) pairs in India across selected socio-economic and demographic factors. Mother-child pairs from NFHS-3 (2005-06), NFHS-4 (2015-16) and NFHS-5 (2019-21) were analysed, which comprised of mothers aged 15–49 years and children aged 1–4 years. The Asian population-specific Body Mass Index classification (WHO, 2004) was used for evaluating maternal nutritional status. Children having Z-scores lower than two SD below the average for weight-for-age and height-for-age were considered to measure underweight and stunting respectively. Descriptive analysis show that prevalence of UCOM and SCOM pairs have doubled in India between 2005 and 2021, which is indeed concerning. Even though household level double burden of malnutrition is closely associated with factors determining maternal overweight, the rural-urban and rich-poor gap have reduced, signalling towards trickling down of overweight problems towards rural and underprivileged sections. The results from the logistic regression analyses across three NFHS rounds, demonstrate that nutrition transition is effective primarily among adult population. The rise in UCOM and SCOM proportions across socio-culturally and economically diverse states of India demands researchers and policy makers must delve deeper into the issue focusing upon intra-household dynamics and child feeding practices leading to such paradoxical mother-child nutritional pairs.

Multi-nutrient Optimization for Skeletal Advancement and Integrated Care in Pediatric Bone Health (MOSAIC-PBH): An Expert Consensus From India

Micronutrient deficiencies in children are common, often coexisting and subclinical, yet remain underrecognized.This expert consensus aims to provide an integrated framework for pediatric bone health, emphasizing multi-nutrient interactions and strategies to support adequate bone accrual and peak bone mass during growth.This consensus was developed using a modified Delphi methodology involving a multidisciplinary panel of 23 experts.A structured review of the literature was conducted to synthesize evidence on nutritional determinants, bone biology, and clinical management.Consensus statements were developed and subjected to a single-round anonymized Delphi voting process, with agreement defined as ≥75%.This expert consensus highlights the potential burden of dietary inadequacy and subclinical deficiency of key micronutrients, including vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, and zinc.Evidence supports a systems-based model of bone health, emphasizing the interdependence of structural minerals, regulatory cofactors, and hormonal pathways.A life-course approach was identified as essential, with critical windows during early life and adolescence.The panel recommends risk-based screening, comprehensive clinical assessment, and a context-specific approach to nutritional management that considers multiple nutrient and lifestyle factors for prevention and management.Practical guidance on formulation, dosing considerations, and implementation strategies is also provided.Pediatric bone health may benefit from a comprehensive, multi-nutrient and multi-mineral framework that complements assessment and management of individual nutrient deficiencies and is aligned with underlying physiology.Adoption of riskbased, life-course strategies and context-specific nutritional interventions may support skeletal health, while high-quality clinical studies are needed to establish the effects of multi-nutrient interventions on bone outcomes and fracture risk.
