Description
Tatiana Palotta Minari reviews in 2026 how population surveys should measure nutritional status in a digital age. No single method captures the full picture: body measurements are cheap but blunt, while laboratory markers are sensitive yet hard to collect at scale.
The review weighs body measurements, body composition tools, and biochemical indicators side by side. Composition methods reveal tissue distribution but need costly equipment, and blood tests face logistical and ethical hurdles in large surveys. The pandemic exposed fragile data systems, while digital tools now offer new ways to combine sources. Minari argues surveys must blend methods and invest in staff, infrastructure, and fair data governance.
