background: obesity is associated with increased lipid peroxidation. it has also been suggested that risk of lipid peroxidation increases with increasing body iron stores. the aim of this study was to examine the association of body iron status with the concentration of plasma malondialdehyde (p-mda) as a marker of lipid peroxidation in obese and non-obese women. methods: in a case control stu...
OBJECTIVE To compare prevalence of anemia and hemoglobin (Hb) levels in Brazilian pregnant women before and after flour fortification with iron. METHODS A repeated cross-sectional panel study of public health care centers of municipalities in the five Brazilian regions was conducted. Retrospective data were obtained from 12,119 medical records of pregnant women distributed in two groups: befo...
Yogurts (nonfat and low fat) were manufactured and fortified with 10, 20, and 40 mg of iron/kg of yogurt. Growth of starter culture bacteria and nonstarter culture bacteria as well as lipid oxidation of the yogurts were monitored over 30 d of storage at 4 degrees C. Sensory characteristics of the yogurts were determined during that time by a trained panel of judges, and consumer panels were use...
BACKGROUND The period of complementary feeding, starting around 6 months of age, is a time of high risk for growth faltering and morbidity. Low micronutrient density of locally available foods is a common problem in low income countries. Children of HIV-infected women are especially vulnerable. Although antiretroviral prophylaxis can reduce breast milk HIV transmission in early infancy, there a...
This peer-reviewed article was written by the Food Fortification Initiative on 19 June 2013 For more information, e-mail [email protected] or see: www.FFInetwork.org Anemia and Public Health An estimated 30% of the world’s population is anemic [1]. Anemia can be caused by nutritional deficiency (e.g., iron, folate, vitamin B12, vitamin A) and non-nutritional factors (e.g., malaria, hookworm, ...
BACKGROUND Iron deficiency is a major cause of anemia and the most prevalent nutrient deficiency among pregnant women in developing countries. The use of iron and folic acid supplements to treat and prevent iron-deficiency anemia has limited effectiveness, mainly due to poor adherence. Home fortification with a micronutrient powder for pregnant women may be an effective and acceptable alternati...
development in the effort to control 1,2 micronutrient deficiencies . Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) and iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) are the major micronutrient deficiencies of public 2,3 health importance in India . Salt is a universal vehicle for the fortification of iodine / iron as it is consumed at approximately the same levels throughout the year by all normal populations, with very ...
OBJECTIVES Patterns of infection among children with varying levels of iron status in a malaria endemic area may vary spatially in ways requiring integrated infection and iron deficiency control programmes. The objective of this secondary analysis was to determine the geospatial factors associated with malaria and non-malaria infection status among young Ghanaian children at the end of a 5-mont...
BACKGROUND In many developing countries, children are at high risk for both goiter and anemia. In areas of subsistence farming in rural Africa, salt is one of the few regularly purchased food items and could be a good fortification vehicle for iodine and iron, provided that a stable yet bioavailable iron fortificant is used. OBJECTIVE We tested the efficacy of salt dual-fortified with iodine ...
