How will you know if you are malnourished? You are probably going to experience some signs and symptoms that will let you know that you are. You may feel that your muscles are almost non-existent. You may also feel weak all the time. The best thing for you to do is to seek your doctor’s help. You need to make sure that you are not suffering from any condition that is stopping your body from absorbing the nutrients that should be received from food.

Once this is clear, you can make some choices that will improve your health overall. You need to be more conscious of the food that you eat. It is best to stick with foods that are rich in vitamins and minerals. Avoid eating food items that are high in salt and sugar. Your doctor may recommend some supplements that will help the absorption of nutrients better.
