Q1 · Breastfeeding
NEET PGEasyExplanation
Exclusive breastfeeding, with no other food or water, is recommended for the first 6 months, after which complementary feeding begins while breastfeeding continues to 2 years or beyond.
Q2 · Colostrum
EasyExplanation
Colostrum is rich in secretory IgA and other antibodies, providing passive immunity, and is higher in protein and lower in fat than mature milk. It should not be discarded — it is the newborn's first immunisation.
Q3 · Rickets
NEET PGMediumExplanation
Vitamin D deficiency causes rickets — bowed legs, widened wrists, a rachitic rosary (costochondral beading), and delayed fontanelle closure — due to defective bone mineralisation. Treatment is vitamin D and calcium.
Q4 · Kwashiorkor
NEET PGMediumExplanation
Kwashiorkor is oedematous protein-energy malnutrition with pitting oedema, hepatomegaly, and hair and skin changes, but relatively preserved fat. Marasmus, by contrast, is severe wasting without oedema.
Q5 · Vitamin A Deficiency
EasyExplanation
Vitamin A deficiency causes night blindness and Bitot spots, and if severe, keratomalacia and blindness. Vitamin A prophylaxis is part of child health programmes in many countries.
Q6 · Diarrhoea Management
HardExplanation
Zinc supplementation alongside ORS reduces the duration and severity of childhood diarrhoea and lowers the risk of future episodes. ORS plus zinc is the cornerstone of diarrhoea management.
Nutrition sits within Pediatrics, which carries the same syllabus in both exams. This set runs to 6 questions, each tagged Easy, Medium or Hard, 1 of them at Hard, and 3 drawn from previous-year papers.
Answer first, then read the explanation even on the ones you got right — the reasoning is where Nutrition marks are actually won, and it is what separates a recalled fact from a question you can solve in a new form. Once the Easy set feels comfortable, filter to Hard to find the gaps Pediatrics examiners keep returning to.
