Biochemical tests: blood and urine tests to check nutrient levels and organ function. Clinical evaluation: physical signs of nutrient deficiencies or health problems. Dietary assessment: food intake, eating habits, and nutrient consumption. Environmental/Social factors: access to food, lifestyle, economic factors.
