There's a condition that starts with a K that can happen to babies who don't breastfeed or take formula. Anyone know what I'm referring to?

Golly that's a word from the past! Not heard it since biology in high school. And I'm a Bubby in my 50s!

Kwashiorkor is not limited to babies. It’s caused by lack of protein in the diet.
