Malnutrition Awareness Week


Governor Lujan Grisham declared this week in September as Malnutrition Awareness Week.

Malnutrition is a serious health concern that affects every system in your body. It can increase the risk of infections, contribute to slow healing, result in longer hospital stays, and even increase the risk of death.

NMAND urges you this Malnutrition Awareness Week—September 19-23, 2022—to learn the warning signs of malnutrition, especially if you’ve been ill or hospitalized.
