5 Countries with the Highest Death Rate From Malnutrition

4. Eritrea 

Total Death Rate: 18.9 

Eritrea has a high malnutrition death rate of 26.52 per 100,000 people, making Eritrea stand among the countries with the highest death rate from malnutrition. Children suffer from acute malnutrition, leading to increased mortality rates in some areas due to water and food shortages. Eritrea requires significant financial resources, with a call for $3.8 million in 2004 for health, nutrition, water, and sanitation projects to address malnutrition and support affected children.
