Food insecurity was found to be closely associated with adverse health outcomes. However, there are limited studies done which explains on the inflammatory events among food secure and insecure individual especially in young adults. The determination of inflammatory related disease indicators which includes serum micronutrient, lipid profile, inflammatory and immunological markers among those groups was therefore studied.
