Malnutrition can be derived from the many things that an infant may lack. This could be in terms of food, nutrients and nourishment. One organ that can be greatly affected by malnutrition is the brain and the neurons. In general, the nervous system. This damage leads to the low level of intelligence and inability to focus on things for longer period.
