At lower age, we found high incidence of malnutrition among adults. At lower education, adults have high incidence of malnutrition. As educational level of adults increases, the incidence of malnutrition declines fast. Similarly, at lower income, incidence of malnutrition is higher among adults. As income increases, the incidence of malnutrition among adults declines fast. A lower age at marriage, we found higher incidence of malnutrition among male and female.
