TL;DR: Large-scale food fortification and biofortification should be part of other nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive efforts to prevent and control micronutrient deficiencies, especially in relation to improving coverage and quality of delivery and measuring progress of national programs.

TL;DR: Recommendations to improve fortification compliance include improving technical capacity; ensuring sustained leadership, accountability, and funding in both the private and the public sectors; and removing political barriers to ensure consistent detection of underfortified products and enforcement of applicable fortification standards.

TL;DR: The critical nutrient density concept is useful to evaluate the nutrient adequacy of the young child's diet and multiple micronutrients are likely to be limited in the diets of Guatemalan young children with continued breastfeeding and family foods.

TL;DR: In 2018, mean global intake per person of unprocessed red meat was 51 g/day (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 48-54; region-specific range 7-114 g /day; 17 countries (23·9% of the world's population) had mean intakes of at least one serving (100 g) per day as discussed by the authors .

TL;DR: Stunting must be carried over from in utero growth retardation in short-stature Guatemalan mothers and its prevention must be linked to maternal care strategies during gestation, or even before, to reduce its prevalence.
