3 Figure 2 Poverty almost inevitably leads to hunger and food insecurity. This can lead to malnourished individuals, which can result in overt clinical signs of nutrient deficiency or micronutrient depletion that is not clinically apparent. Often, food insecurity can lead to overnutrition, which chronically will result in obesity. The link between obesity and the degree of micronutrient depletion has not been systematically characterized.
