Nutritionally acquired immune deficiency syndrome (NAIDS) is a significant disadvantage to children with malnutrition. The role of nutrients in immunity and markers of inflammation in infections are highlighted. The complex interaction between malnutrition, infection, and immunity are elucidated. A brief note on the “ABCDEFG approach” for comprehensive assessment and nutrient supplementation for optimum intervention is included.
