Dietary diversity and child malnutrition in Ghana.
Heliyon 2017 May
The health of children in Ghana has improved in recent years. However, the current prevalence rates of malnutrition remain above internationally acceptable levels. This study, therefore, revisits the determinants of child health by using Ghana's Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey to investigate the effect of infant feeding practices on child health. We used the World Health Organization's Infant and Young Children Feeding guidelines to measure dietary quality. The econometric analyses show that dietary diversity may cause improvement in children's health in Ghana. This suggests that educational campaigns on proper infant feeding and complementary dieting could be an effective means of improving the health of children in Ghana.
