correlated causing an overestimation due to the double counting. Also the index is insensitive to seasonal and/or other short term food and health shocks. Another limitation, that has been recently addressed, is that the GHI does not include information about micronutrient deficiencies, also known as the hidden hunger. While there are limitations the GHI is still extremely resourceful for instance, GHI is used for cross country comparison, and can be calculated for almost all countries in the…

of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) by some of the sample children as a limitation. Because ICS reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, the spirometry tests would be influenced by their use (Liu et al., 2009).
