Which of the following is not a method of Nutritional Status Assessment by anthropometry?
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
Anthropometry is the measurement of the physical dimensions and composition of the human body, used in the assessment of nutritional status.

MUAC (Mid-Upper Arm Circumference): It is a common anthropometric measurement used to assess malnutrition, particularly in children.

Height: Measurement of height is another anthropometric method used to evaluate growth and nutritional status, especially in relation to age.

Waist Circumference: This measurement helps assess body fat distribution and is used to evaluate the risk of obesity-related health problems.

Blood Pressure, however, is not a method of nutritional status assessment by anthropometry. It is used to measure the force of blood against artery walls, which relates to cardiovascular health rather than nutrition.

Thus, the correct answer is Blood Pressure.
