Abstract

One of the major factors affecting brain development is Malnutrition. In particular, protein malnutrition can result in various neurological conditions. The main cause of behavioural changes in malnourished people may be due to changes on brain connectivity. PEM cancause severe crisis in children?s,thereby it can harm the on-goingdevelopment of brainduringchildhood. Most of the malnutrition and its neurological conditions can be prevented and it is one of the public health concerns. There are many studies focusing on need of proteins in malnourished people. The present review is mainly done focusing the changes in neurological factors observed in malnourished individuals.
