study on knowledge attitude and practice

This form of hunger is known as hidden hunger or micronutrient deficiency. When we are deficient in a specific micronutrient, say vitamin A, iron, and iodine, our brain does not get or trigger the same signal as our body's needs for more food. Hidden hunger is the presence of multiple micronutrient deficiencies such as iron, iodine and vitamin A which can occur without a deficit in energy intake as a result of consuming an energy-dense, but nutrient-poor diet. Global statistics show that more than two billion individuals, or one in three people globally, suffering from hidden hunger. It may therefore require more targeted campaigns to increase the ability of community members to adopt best practices while reducing barriers to consumption of nutritious diet. However, there is still a gap in practice. The majority of the respondents were aware of the importance of consuming micronutrient rich foods and had a positive attitude towards them. Conclusionįindings can support development agents working to improve nutrition in Ethiopia to focus on improving community knowledge and perception of biofortified and fortified foods to improve diet quality through increased micronutrient intake. When we rate respondents, male had a relatively better understanding about fortified foods than their female counterparts. Results show that there is very little awareness about biofortified and fortified foods. However, concerning vitamin A and iodine food types and its deficiency, male respondents had relatively better knowledge and consumption practice than female. Results indicate that female are generally more adept than male at identifying the symptoms of malnutrition. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Qualitative data were analyzed using a narrative and content approach. Qualitative and quantitative data collection approaches were used. The study aimed to analyze the level of gender-based knowledge, attitude, and practice towards malnutrition and micronutrient deficiency using primary data collected from two regional states in Ethiopia.
