Sugar-sweetened Beverages, Low-nutrient Foods and Child Malnutrition in Cambodia

Tecora Mirginato*

Child malnutrition remains a pressing public health concern in Cambodia, with significant implications for long-term health outcomes and economic development. This study investigates the role of Sugar-Sweetened Beverages (SSBs) and low-nutrient foods in contributing to child malnutrition in Cambodia. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and analysis of national survey data, this study examines the prevalence of SSB consumption and consumption of low-nutrient foods among Cambodian children, as well as their association with malnutrition indicators such as stunting, wasting and underweight. The findings shed light on the detrimental impact of poor dietary choices on child health outcomes and underscore the importance of targeted interventions and policy measures to promote healthy eating habits and combat child malnutrition in Cambodia.
