• The food security system: A new conceptual framework (2012, background): “For example, parasitic and diarrheal diseases cause nutrient losses through blood and stool and reduce nutrient absorption necessitating higher nutrient intake and thus more food to cover the losses, if such compensation is possible at all (Katona and Katona-Apte 2008; Stephenson et al. 2000).”
• Sanitation and Health (2010, background): “Helminthic infections negatively impact the nutritional status of infected individuals, with consequent growth faltering in young children, and anaemia, particularly in pregnant women [27,28].”
