Malnutrition in Africa


Malnutrition in Africa

Malnutrition is  serious factor in all parts of Africa. I did this research on malnutrition because my heart goes out to any child that needs a meal. Children can not learn  without a descent meal. Nourishment is so important in your daily regiment. children who do not have the proper diet is tired , zombie like and irratable. a good breakfast is needed to start off your day. The people in Africa is not as fortunate as we are.

There are places in other parts of the world that suffe from malnutrtion but not like Africa. Africa is evident for malnutrtion and bad watr. Food is not plentiful because of the climate and the area is over populated.



Evidence shows that malnutrition is not simply a result of household food inse-

curity: many children in food-secure households are still underweight or stunted

because of inappropriate infant feeding and care practices, poor access to health

services, or poor sanitation, except under famine conditions. Malnutrition is often

linked to gender issues such as women’s lack of time. Though malnutrition is higher

A Birthing Experience

When ask to write about a birthing experience, I was confused.  Well I can recall vagauely what happened at my child"s birth. I was a mother with so many issues. I had so many issues that include hypertension and diabetes. Also I had to get a cerclage to hold her in.I was in pain for those seven months. She was worth all the issues and pain. I had several miscarriages so this is my miracle baby. I was in labor for over 48 hours. I stayed drugged up .The doctors remove the cerclage stitch after 48 hours.She came out 12 hours later. I was awakened by doctors telling me that Jai-kalee' was here. It was an emotional moment.I finally made it through a pregnacy.I did not see my daugter until 28 hours later. she was so perfect. I cried becuas she was in
ICU becuase of my aliments, but she was ok. I just was glad my daughter made it through the storm.
