Brief Summary:
Anaemia is the world leading cause of disability and is responsible for about more than 115,000 maternal deaths and 591,000 perinatal deaths per year, of which 3/4 occur in Africa and Asia. Despite the fact that there are several causes of anemia, the most important causes are due to micronutrients deficiency, namely iron, Folic acid and Vitamin B12. Low intakes of these micronutrients consequently affect a woman's health, pregnancy outcome and the nutritional status of breast-fed children. With these in mind we wish to test the effectiveness of salt fortified with these four micronutrients (Iodine, Iron, Folic acid and vitamin B12) in raising the Hemoglobin levels among the non-pregnant and non-lactating women of reproductive age.
Detailed Description:
Anaemia is the low level of Haemoglobin based on the location. As per WHO a woman is termed anaemic if has HB \<11g/dl but in high attitude is =\<13g/dl
