BACKGROUND Multiple micronutrient supplements could increase hemoglobin and improve micronutrient status of pregnant women more than iron supplements alone or iron with folic acid. OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of multiple micronutrients with those of iron supplements alone or iron with folic acid, on hemoglobin and micronutrient status of pregnant women. METHODS Studies were identified ...

Adequacy or deficiency in the micronutrient status of an individual deeply affects its immunocompetence. Among the different micronutrients, antioxidative vitamins and f3-carotene are particularly effective in modulating immune functions and host defense against microorganisms or other invasive processes. This involves antigen-specific humoral or cellmediated reactions ofthe immune system as we...

In the absence of underlying disease, these symptoms could be caused by a lack of vitamins and minerals. Certain risk groups like the elderly and pregnant women are well-recognized.

JNCI | Editorials 363 The prospects for cancer prevention through micronutrient supplementation have never looked worse. Several large, randomized cancer prevention trials have recently reported no reduced risk from micronutrient supplementation ( 1 – 4 ), and the short report by Figueiredo et al. in this issue of the Journal adds to a growing body of evidence that micronutrient supplementation...

INTRODUCTION The MAINTAIN study is an on-going RCT comparing high-dose micronutrient and anti-oxidant supplementation versus recommended daily allowance (RDA) vitamins in slowing HIV immune deficiency progression in ART-naïve people with HIV infection. OBJECTIVE We planned analysis of the first 127 participants to determine the baseline prevalence of serum micronutrient deficiencies and corre...

Understanding dietary patterns is vital to reducing the number of people experiencing hunger (about 795 million), micronutrient deficiencies (2 billion), and overweight or obesity (2.1 billion). We characterize global trends in dietary quality by estimating micronutrient density of the food supply, prevalence of inadequate intake of 14 micronutrients, and average prevalence of inadequate intake...
