Abstract: Malnutrition in young children is a major concerning issue globally. India has the highest number of children suffering from undernourishment and anaemia. As malnourishment leads to increasing morbidity and mortality rate, it also leads to poor or delayed cognitive and physical development in growing children. Malnutrition is a complex, multifactorial issue. It results from a number of different biological, behavioral and socio-economic factors. The social determinants of health (SDHs) are the predominant challenges to address this issue. In this regard a small locality based study was conducted to survey the health status among young children in Jadavpur, Kolkata. This project aims to find out the health status of children related to the nutrition level & also to study the various epidemiological factors related to the malnutrition for children with their different socio-economic background. Result of this study shows that 8.11% children were obese whereas 3.63% children are undernourished. Analysis of data from this study revealed that a faulty food habit is one of the important causative factors followed by poverty level for poor health status in terms of malnutrition among children.
