Infant Nutrition Disorders

Disorders caused by nutritional imbalance, either overnutrition or undernutrition, occurring in infants ages 1 month to 24 months.

Also Known As:

Infant Overnutrition; Infantile Malnutrition; Malnutrition in Infant; Infant Nutrition Disorder; Malnutrition in Infants; Malnutrition, Infantile; Nutrition Disorder, Infant; Overnutrition, Infant; Infant Malnutrition; Malnutrition, Infant; Nutrition Disorders, Infant
