The Double Burden of Malnutrition (DBM) refers to the coexistence of undernutrition and overnutrition within the same population, family, or individual. It encompasses various forms of malnutrition, including stunting, wasting, overweight, and obesity. This dual challenge poses a major public health problem, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, where rapid urbanization and economic transitions exacerbate nutritional disparities. Factors contributing to DBM include socioeconomic status, food access, lifestyle choices, and environmental influences. To address the gaps in tackling DBM in India, a multifaceted approach is essential. Targeted interventions to address the double burden of malnutrition include community-based nutrition education programs, facility-based initiatives like Baby-Friendly Hospital practices, and family-focused strategies that promote responsive feeding. Additionally, enhancing the availability of nutritious foods, implementing micronutrient supplementation, fostering healthy food environments, and promoting physical activity are crucial.
