It is a great honor and privilege for me to be able to present my project work report on the prevalence of lifestyle diseases among overweight and obese people in Dhaka City. Then on December 2020, under my guidance, he concluded his report writing based on his data. Moreover, Furthermore, we make sure that his report meets the partial criteria of the NFE program.
Mahatabuddin, Associate Professor and Head of the Department of Nutrition and Food Engineering, as well as respected teacher Ms. Fouzia Akter, Supervisor, Assistant Professor, Department of Nutrition and Food Engineering, for her excellent guidance and patience, as well as her support throughout the duration of this project work. Without their assistance it would be difficult to carry out this effort. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude and respect to everyone who helped me complete my report.
I am grateful to all my teachers in the Department of Nutrition and Food Engineering of Daffodil International University for their support and advice during my studies. I am grateful to my family and friends for their unwavering support. The main purpose of the study about Knowledge, Attitude and Practices on Micronutrient Deficiency Diseases among Selected Households of Dhaka City. The largest number of food sources for body building were meat, fish, eggs and poultry 76 (54.3%).
The highest number of the Sources of Protective food that respondents select Fruits and vegetables 48 (34.3%).
Introduction
Consequently, the demand for micronutrients will vary based on the individual demand, which is linked to the different metabolic circumstances during the life cycle. The way we can see our eyes grow depends on the right amount of nutrients and vitamins in our bodies. There seems to be no shortage of study on the impact of various vitamins and minerals on our daily lives, from many essential micronutrients to entire books on the subject.
Risk Factor
Justification of the study
Operational Definition
Iron, vitamin A and iodine deficiencies are by far the most common worldwide, especially among adolescents and pregnant women [4]. Micronutrient deficiencies can cause obvious and possibly serious health problems, but they can also cause less clinically detectable losses in energy, mental clarity, and overall performance. This can lead to poorer academic performance, lower work productivity and an increased risk of various illnesses and diseases [3].
Severe iodine deficiency can cause brain damage, and can also cause stillbirth, premature abortion, and congenital abnormalities during infancy. Iodine dysfunction of lesser severity will also result in neurological disease and a reduction in intellectual ability. Universal salt iodization, which requires all food-grade salt used in household and food production to be supplemented with iodine, is the recommended method for preventing iodine deficiency.
Vitamin A deficiency is the leading cause of preventable blindness in infants, as well as an increased risk of illness and death from serious infections, including diarrhea and measles. Vitamin A deficiency can also affect pregnant women in high-risk areas during the third trimester [5].
Research Question
Anemia is a condition in which the number of red blood cells or hemoglobin concentration is low, resulting in fatigue, nausea, shortness of breath and dizziness.

The micronutrient deficiency table we saw those different types of micronutrient deficiency diseases name. Most people say yes, they had knowledge about regular intake of Vit-enriched food. This table shows how many people like to eat enough leafy and non-leafy vegetable percentage.
The largest number of people say yes, they like to eat enough leafy and non-leafy vegetables and the percentage was 80. And 26 (18.6%) people say no, they do not like to eat enough leafy and non-leafy vegetables. These tables show the most important vitamin for Covid-19. Vitamin C was the most important for humans in these pandemic situations because it boosts our immune system and the percentage of vitamin C. Second, the important vitamin for Covid was vitamin A, the percentage of vitamin D was 14 (10.0%) and last no less the percentage of vitamin B was 2.9%.
These charts show which sources people know the above knowledge percentage. The highest number of people who know other sources is 60. This table shows the percentage of the respondent's family member or child who has primary nutritional diseases.

Chapter-5 Discussion
Chapter-6 Conclusion
Deficiency diseases; otherwise it won't get the attention it needs. We need additional campaigns in that sector, similar to the Vit. There are many NGOs working for the health sector and they need to be tackled much more in that sector. Micronutrients should be incorporated into the education system, and instructors should be used to convey information to students.
