31 A national IDD survey in 1996 reported widespread serious goitre problem. This led to universal salt iodization (USI) implemented in Sabah and majority of the endemic districts in Sarawak. IDD was not considered a problem in Peninsular Malaysia then, but recent studies have indicated the need for USI in the peninsula. 31

35 Most children showed adequate concentrations of haemoglobin, serum ferritin, zinc, folate and vitamin B12. In contrast, 35.3% of the children had vitamin D deficiency ( 37.5nmol/L) and a further 37.1% had insufficiency concentrations (> nmol/L). (Khor et al., 2011) KGL 2012

37 High prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency and its association with BMI-for-age among primary school children in Kuala Lumpur aged 7-12 years (N=402) Among the boys, a significant inverse association was found between serum vitamin D status and BMI-for-age (χ2 = 5.958; P =0.016). A total of 17.9% were overweight and 16.4% obese. Prevalence of obesity was significantly higher among the boys (25%) than in the girls (9.5%) (χ2 = ; P <.001). (Khor et al., 2011) KGL 2012

40 National Breast Feeding Policy A National Breastfeeding Policy was formulated in 1993 and revised it in 2005 in accordance with the World Health Assembly Resolution 54.2 (2001) recommending exclusive breastfeeding in the first six months of life and continued up to two years. In addition, complementary foods should be introduced at 6 months of age. 40
41 Food Hygiene and Safety Policy in Schools Several policies and activities for schools have been developed through the joint venture efforts between Ministry of Health and Ministry of Education The Program Bersepadu Sekolah Sihat (PBSS) is aimed at empowering the school community to ensure safe food for school children and prevention of food poisoning. 41
42 Nutrition Improvements Nutrition Improvements is administered through four functional areas of nutrition planning and development, nutrition promotion, nutrition rehabilitation and nutrition surveillance. Activities under nutrition planning and development include planning, developing and evaluating nutrition programs and activities, and monitoring and evaluating the implementation of the National Plan of Action for Nutrition of Malaysia (NPANM) Nutrition promotion encompasses promoting infant and young child nutrition, adolescent nutrition, nutrition in institutions and adult nutrition through healthy eating and nutrition for the elderly and those with special needs. Healthy eating is also propagated through the establishment of Nutrition Information Centers. 42

45 National Plan of Action for Nutrition for Malaysia (NPAN II) This is the second master plan of the Ministry of Health (MOH) aimed at promoting optimal well-being of Malaysians, in particular in improving breast-feeding and complementary feeding reducing protein-energy malnutrition and micronutrient deficiency reducing overweight and obesity preventing and controlling diet-related non-communicable diseases. KGL 2012
46 Objective TO ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN THE NUTRITIONAL WELL-BEING OF MALAYSIAN Specific objectives Improving nutritional status of all Preventing and controlling diet-related non-communicable diseases Enabling strategies Improving household food security especially among the low income Promoting optimal infant & young children feeding practices Preventing and controlling nutritional deficiencies Promoting healthy eating and active living Supporting efforts to protect consumers in food quality & safety Facilitating strategies Foundation strategy Ensuring all have access to nutrition information Continuous assessment and monitoring of the nutrition situation Promoting continuous research and development Ensuring nutrition & dietetics practised by trained professionals Strengthening institutional capacity in nutritional activities Incorporating nutrition objectives and strategies into policies and programmes of relevant agencies KGL 2012
47 Indicators for action Targets for improvement Status Anemia: - Children below 5 years - Reduce from 18% in 1999 to 9% Data? - Pregnant women Iodine deficiency disorders: -School children 8-10 years - Reduce from 43.8% in 2003 to 30% -- Median urinary iodine excretion between µg/l 21.5% (MOH, 2009) -109 µg/l (MOH, 2009) Vitamin A deficiency: - Children below 5 years - Reduce from 19.8% in 2000 to 10.0% (low serum retinol less than 20ug/dl) Data? KGL 2012
48 Pregnant & lactating mothers: - folic acid + multivitamins + full cream milk powder (1kg/month for 3 months) Underweight children 6 months to 6 years: - full cream milk powder (1kg/month) Very poor family with underweight child below 6 years: - Food Basket monthly KGL 2012

50 School children from low income family (7-12 years): milk and supplementary food Milk (plain or chocolate/strawberry flavoured) (250 ml packet) is made available to primary school children The milk is given free to children from low income families while others pay a subsidized price Problems: irregular supply, lack of refrigeration facility in school, and side effects (an evaluation study of 8,000 children found ~20% claimed they had stomach ache after drinking school milk). KGL 2012
51 Provides free food daily to primary school children from low income families Each meal meets ¼ -⅓of Malaysian RDI for calories and 1/5-2/3 RNI for protein for children 7-12 years Cost of each meal is about RM1.00 (~US25 ) per child; extended to all schools since 1989 Problems: non-compliance with set menus by providers KGL 2012

53 Global target 1: reduction of childhood stunting Global target 2: reduction of anaemia in women of reproductive age Global target 3: 50% reduction of low birth weight Global target 4: No increase in childhood overweight Global target 5: Increase exclusive breastfeeding rates in the first six months of life to at least 50% 53
54 Global target 1: reduction of childhood stunting Target: 40% reduction of the global number of children under five who are stunted, by the year 2022, compared to the baseline of This would translate into a 5.1% relative reduction per year between 2012 and and implies reducing the number of stunted children from the 171 million in 2010 to approximately 100 million. Global target 4: No increase in childhood overweight Target: 0% increase in the prevalence of overweight in children under five. Target setting: the target implies that the global prevalence of 6.7% (95% CI ) estimated for 2010 should not rise to 9.1% (in 2020) as per current trends23 and that the number of overweight children under 5 should not increase from 43 to approximately 60 million as forecasted 54
55 Factor Obesity WCRF International recommendation Support and retain. Integrate and cross reference target and indicator on infant obesity (aged 0-5) and include indicator on child obesity (aged 5-18). Cross reference to indicators on total fat and sugar consumption, fruit and vegetable consumption, marketing to children, physical activity and breastfeeding. Overweight and obesity in children (aged 5-18) We recommend the inclusion of a new indicator on overweight and obesity in children aged Further work is needed to determine how best to report on obesity in school-aged children and young people. We recommend that this work is taken forward. 55
56 In the case of a rapidly expanding economy such as Malaysia, it is shown that: Overall, indicators of the health and nutritional status of young children are relatively better than several countries in Southeast Asia. Nonetheless, national average values tend to mask significant disparities in malnutrition across geographical regions. Stunting and thinness prevalence disparities shown between higher and lower income regions Overweight/obesity prevalence also showed regional differentials, but not as distinctly mapped to lower income areas, as for under-nutrition status. 56
57 These findings have implications for intervention programmes, especially the need to be sensitive to populations with a double burden of malnutrition. Intervention strategies for further improvement of the nutritional status of Malaysian children should continue to target the indigenous and minority groups, and the poor in urban and rural areas. It is recommended that long-term studies which relate dietary intake/lifestyles in early childhood to risks of chronic diseases in adulthood be supported in the region. 57
