A Review of Phytate, Iron, Zinc, and Calcium Concentrations in Plant-Based Complementary Foods Used in Low-Income Countries and Implications for Bioavailability:

TL;DR: To ensure the World Health Organization estimated needs for these minerals from plant-based complementary foods for breastfed infants are met, dephytinization must be combined with enrichment with animal-source foods and/or fortification with appropriate levels and forms of mineral fortificants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk of zinc, iodine and other micronutrient deficiencies among school children in North East Thailand

TL;DR: The prevalence of zinc and iodine deficiency and their interrelationships with vitamin A deficiency and anemia and associations with socio-economic status, hemoglobin type, and anthropometry in North East Thailand are assessed in a cross-sectional study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Only a small proportion of anemia in northeast Thai schoolchildren is associated with iron deficiency

TL;DR: The contribution of iron deficiency to anemia was low and its detection was complicated by coexisting suboptimal vitamin A status and age were the major predictors of hemoglobin concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does zinc deficiency play a role in stunting among primary school children in NE Thailand

TL;DR: The lower dietary intakes of the stunted males compared to their non-stunted counterparts may be associated with anorexia and hypogeusia induced by zinc deficiency, which may be a factor limiting linear growth among boys in NE Thailand.
