With recent evidences reporting association between neuro developmental delay, neuro disabilities and malnutrition (Gladstone et al., 2014). Programs to improve malnutrition will be most effective if they also target the neurodevelopment of children. Depending on the type of malnutrition brain is affected in different ways; for example chronic malnutrition (stunting is manifested as low height for age), acute malnutrition (formerly known as protein-energy malnutrition and manifested as either kwashiorkor or wasting, low middle-upper arm circumference [MUAC] or low weight for height), or a specific micronutrient deficiency such as iron or zinc. Some deficiencies, such as chronic malnutrition, will affect global functioning of the brain and are assessed best through general developmental assessment tools (Aly and Taj, 2010; de Moura et al., 2010).
