The is when the absorption of nutrients from the digestive tract is poor (low level). This can be caused by drug side effects or a health condition or disease.

Poor absorption of nutrients from the gut leading to symptoms such as weight loss, weakness, tiredness and loose stools.
abnormal absorption of nutrients from the digestive tract
Inability to absorb sufficient nutrients, either certain specific nutrients or all nutrients in general, from one's typical diet.
