Go to any high school and look at the girls, see how many malnourished to the point of stunted growth you'll find.

To answer that question we would know to what extend on has to be malnourished to stunt growth. Given average changes in Western height for the last century I don't think that you need to be extremely malnourished to reduce growth.
