Brief Summary:
The objective of this randomized efficacy feeding trial was to determine the effects of consuming iron-biofortified rice on iron status in women compared to non-biofortified rice A randomized trial of biofortified rice IR68144-2B-2-2-3 bred to enhance iron content was conducted among women living in convents in the greater area of Manila Philippines for 9 months
Detailed Description:
Iron deficiency is the most prevalent nutritional deficiency globally with the highest burden in women of reproductive age and children In this randomized controlled trial 317 women aged 18-45 years living in convents in the greater Manila area Philippines were fed meals using either biofortified or commercially available rice for all meals 7 days a week for 9 months Women living in convents in the greater Manila area were recruited for this study These women represent a segment of the population at high risk for iron deficiency consume large quantities of rice and all of their meals are prepared and consumed in common kitchen and dining areas respectively
The investigators hypothesized that daily consumption of iron-biofortified rice IR68144-2B-2-2-3 would improve hemoglobin serum ferritin and total body iron in 9 months compared to control rice In order to examine this hypothesis the investigators conducted a randomized efficacy trial of iron-biofortified rice and iron status in among women living in convents in the greater area of Manila Philippines for 9 months
The objective of this randomized efficacy feeding trial was to determine the effects of consuming iron-biofortified rice on iron status in women compared to non-biofortified rice
The long-term goal of this study is to determine if iron bio-fortification of rice is an efficacious and potentially effective strategy to improve iron status of at-risk populations in resource-limited settings
