A diet lacking in which of the following over an extended period of time can affect the growth of a person?

Nutritional diseases or dietary nutrient-related diseases are caused due to deficiency or excess of nutrients in the diet. A diet low in both carbohydrates and proteins for an extended period of time can stop a person's growth. E.g. Marasmus, kwashiorkar, etc.

Nutritional diseases that include developmental abnormalities can be prevented by a proper well balanced diet
