Researchers from JNCASR have developed an innovative method to activate thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules, by trapping it with light in a “optical cavity”.
Palatable supplementary foods designed with variety in mind could be the cure for urban malnutrition
Researchers use a new technique to evaluate under-nutrition, micronutrient deficiencies and obesity in children.
Researchers investigate how dietary patterns, single nutrients, and food choice may be promoting or protecting against depressive disorders.
Infants require the highest level of nutrition for healthy growth and development. A four-month-old child, for example, uses 30% of its consumed food for growth. Adequate intake of minerals, like calcium and potassium, are known to be conducive to their wholesome diet. But, data from UNICEF shows that there is a high rate of undernutrition in children around the world.
In a recent study, Dr Sachdev and an international team of researchers have shown that India’s mortality rate due to severe acute malnutrition is a fraction of the WHO estimates. This study is published in the journal PLOS Medicine.
Researchers from the University of East Anglia, UK, and the M S Swaminathan Research Foundation (MSSRF), Chennai, India, have explored how women’s work in agriculture affects nutritional outcomes for the family. The study found that although agricultural outputs have increased with women working in the farms, it has left them with little time to cater to the nutritional needs of their families and themselves, resulting in malnutrition.
