Abstract A double burden of malnutrition occurs when individuals, household members or communities experience both undernutrition and overweight. Here, we show geospatial estimates overweight wasting prevalence among children under 5 years age in 105 low- middle-income countries (LMICs) from 2000 to 2017 aggregate these policy-relevant administrative units. Wasting decreased overall across LMICs between 2017, 8.4% (62.3 (55.1–70.8) million) 6.4% (58.3 (47.6–70.7) million), but is predicted...
