Overview

Nutritional deficiencies occur when the body is not receiving adequate amounts of nutrients. They can occur as a result of inadequate diet, poor absorption of nutrients, or increased requirements for certain nutrients. This can lead to a wide range of symptoms and illnesses, depending on which nutrients are lacking. Nutritional deficiencies can affect all ages, although certain populations are more at risk due to poor diet or underlying health conditions. Identifying and treating nutritional deficiencies early is essential to maintain overall health. Nutritional supplements and dietary adjustments can be used to help restore nutrient levels and improve health.
