Publisher Description
INTRODUCTION Each year about 12 million infants and children die in the developing countries [1]. Specifically in Africa, more than 20% on average do not reach their fifth birthday [2]. Majority of these deaths are due to infections and parasitic diseases, while about 54% of the children die malnourished. In poor countries, children from birth or soon after are caught in a malnutrition-infection cycle, which many do not survive due to poor feeding practices and unhealthy environment [3].
