Abstract
Interaction between severe malnutrition and immunity have been described in clinical and experimental studies. Effects of marginal malnutrition or deficiency of single nutrients are less well-defined and should be investigated. Studies indicate that T cell function, in particular, is sensitive to many nutritional deficits or abnormalities and may compromise clinical immunological responses.
