Question
Statement: Malnutrition isn’t just about acute
starvation and often, healthy-looking people are malnourished too, because their diet does not include the right micronutrients. Courses of actions: I . To tackle the issue, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) should release a set of standards and focus on awareness and consensus building. II. The consumers should be made aware that deficiencies can have serious effects like, iron deficiency leads to critical problems during pregnancy, and not enough Vitamin A can lead to poor vision, infections, and skin problems. In each question below a statement is given followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. A course of action is a practicable and feasible step or administrative decision to be taken for follow – up, improvement, or further action in regard to the problem, policy, etc. On the basis of the information given in the statement, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true, and decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follows(s) pursuing.Solution
Both I and II follow because Course of action I addresses the problem from a policy and standards perspective, while Course of action II addresses it from a consumer awareness standpoint, and both are logical and complementary steps to combat micronutrient malnutrition. I. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) should release a set of standards and focus on awareness and consensus building: This is a practical step as establishing standards for food and building consensus around those standards provides a framework for addressing the problem systemically. II. The consumers should be made aware that deficiencies can have serious effects: This is a crucial step because the statement highlights that even healthy-looking people can be malnourished. Educating consumers about the specific health consequences of micronutrient deficiencies (like iron deficiency during pregnancy or Vitamin A deficiency) motivates them to change their diets and seek out the right nutrients.
