Degeneration of tissues due to malnurishment ? .?

Question

If someone is malnourished, someone said that only some of the damage can be repaired. How much protein loss, or amino acid deficiency might contribute to actual nigral cell destruction? (The gray tissues in the brain) This is concern because loss of these types of cells is permanent according to what we know and can create other diseases such as neurological defects.

How long until someone might lose these types of cells due to inadequate or lack of amino acids ?

Answer 1

It usually takes 1-2 years if the body cannot cope with protein deficiency and you are right when it causes neurological defects . This is a very rare case and found in Africa.

hope this helps^_^
