malnutrition is caused by a variety of things. Cooking food too long takes nutrients out of food. Some food manufacturing processes take nutrients out of food, like when they process rice and sugar certain vitamins are taken out just because it can't be helped. You can buy raw sugar and rice(brown rice) at health food stores. If you don't eat enough of one type of food you can develop malnutrition of certain vitamins and minerals in that type of food like if you don't eat many foods in the meat/egg/bean category you will have malnutrition of protein.
