dietary deficiencies due to wasting diseases


Explanation:
see 'dietary deficiciencies' and 'wasting diseases' (subject HIV in this article):

http://www.scientificworld.net/fulltext/ajid/ajid23180-183.p...

Plural *deficiencies* is important as there are more than one deficiency ( ..... for protein, vitamins, zinc ...)

sorry for the typo in the second line, not defi*ci*ciencies,
but --> deficiencies, of course.
