“…Unhealthy, malnourished individuals abstain from classes/ schools (for health seeking), affecting their performance. Even if they attend classes, they usually perform poorly because proper food is essential for growth, development, and learning [28,[7][8][9]. Specifically, phytate naturally occurs in plants and can be complex with positively charged valuable minerals like iron, zinc, phosphorus, and other micronutrients needed for development and growth.…”

This study aimed to determine the pattern of cannabis and tobacco use among adolescent students in Sokoto and measure antinutritional factors in the two drugs. Qualitative and quantitative standard methods were applied.Reagents and materials of analytical grade were used to evaluate the antinutrients. Signs of drug abuse among adolescents are untidiness (33.3%), blackening of lips and toes (24.2%), poor concentration (20.0%), poor/foul odor (12.1%), false images (6.7%), hostility (5.5%), and reduced weight (1.2%). The perceived causes of drug abuse are peer pressure (36.4%), poor parental guidance (30.3%), labor/work (15.2%), learning musical art (9.1%), unemployment (6.1%), and sports (3.0%). The submitted effects linked to cannabis and cigarette revealed are health effects (27.3%), followed by poor academic performance (24.2%), confusion (21.2%), school dropout (16.9%), disrespect (7.3%), and lastly disrespect (3.0%). The preventions are strict restriction on drugs (33.3%), education/awareness about the effects of drug abuse (26.7%), religious intervention (21.2%), avoiding deviant peers (9.7%), and poor parental guidance (9.1%). Substance abuse is a menace among the studied adolescents, and antinutrients present in the drugs affect the users, especially their academic performance.

Malnutrition is one of the most critical areas which needs government focus as it plays a crucial role in a country's economic and social development. In recent times, India is proving to be one of the fastest-growing countries in the South Asian region. Malnutrition and hunger rate is reduced to achieve The United Nation's second Sustainable Development Goal, Zero Hunger, to end world hunger by 2030. However, some states of India still serve as home to a more significant number of stunted and underweight children, especially in Bihar and Meghalaya, respectively. (NFHS-5) The current paper focuses on data analysis of malnutrition in India including several factors based on the qualitative research method. A systematic study was done to collect data by reviewing thousands of national- international journals and reports of 3rd, 4th and 5th NFHS and Globally hunger index of India, and WHO report on malnutrition in India. The government of India took the step of launching Poshan Abhiyan in 2017, which needs to be more focused on ruler areas of India.

“…Lack of enough and proper nutrition is associated with nutrient losses, increased energy expenses, neurological disorders, poor growth, poor development, prevalence of infectious and non-infectious illnesses, and other effects (Rininela et al, 2017;Umar etal., 2018;Kaoje et al, 2019). In a similar streak with other developing countries like Nigeria, there are a lot of problems pertaining food security as a result of increased population, climate change, poor production, industrialization and other issues; in turn leading to malnutrition that affects adults, and children (Bagilkar & Savanadatti, 2015;Gada and Ismaila, 2021;Kuntolaksono et al, 2022;Sarkingobir et al, 2022). About 10 million children are reported to be inflicted with stunting, and anemia has led to 19% maternal mortality as a result of iron deficiency Gada and Ismaila, 2021;Kuntolaksorno et al, 2022).…”

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of neem leaves in preserving the mineral elements content of two tomato types from Sokoto state, Nigeria. Healthy, ripe and firm tomato fruits brought from Sokoto City, were selected, cleaned for this study. 5%, 10% and 25% by were prepared by dissolving respective 5g, 10g and 25g neem extracts in 9.5, 9.0 and 7.5 liters of distilled water respectively to preserve tomatoes. The experiment was laid in a completely randomized design. And elements, Na, K, Ca, Mg, and P were determined in the tomatoes after the experiment using atomic absorption spectroscopy. The levels of Na, K, Ca, and P in Daneka after preservation ranges are: 1.1-1.3(ppm), 2.1-2.3 (ppm), 1.0-1.3 (ppm), 0.30-0.34 (ppm), and 0.3200-0.3330 (ppm) respectively. The levels of Na, K, Ca, and P in UTC after preservation ranges are: 1.6-1.10 (ppm), 1.6-1.10 (ppm), 0.10-1.16 (ppm), 0.30-0.35 (ppm), and 0.9997-1.0998 (ppm) respectively; revealing an increasing trend of elemental contents of all the tomato cultivars with an increasing neem concentration. Thus, the neem leaves indicate the capacity to preserve a typical quality parameter of tomatoes, that is concentration of Na, K, Ca, and P elements at p < 0.05 significant level.
