Abstract in brief

  • This review discusses how nutritional status, particularly body weight ranging from underweight to obesity, influences the risk of infections across different life stages.
  • In children and adolescents, being underweight, often due to malnutrition, increases infection risk, especially in developing countries, while in industrialized nations, obesity also correlates with higher infection rates, including skin and respiratory infections.
  • In adults, both underweight and obese individuals tend to have a greater likelihood of infections, but factors like malnutrition, hygiene, and other health conditions can complicate the understanding of how body weight directly impacts infection risk.]
