Overview
Zinc + iron + folic acid is a combination micronutrient supplement evaluated for its potential to reduce mortality and hospitalizations in young children. This specific formulation, often delivered as a daily dispersible tablet, was the focus of a major randomized, double-blind clinical trial conducted by the Society for Applied Studies in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS). The supplement targets common nutritional deficiencies in developing regions, where zinc deficiency is linked to increased susceptibility to infectious diseases. By providing a recommended daily allowance (RDA) of zinc alongside iron and folic acid, the intervention aims to bolster immune response and reduce the burden of conditions like diarrhea and pneumonia in children aged 1 to 23 months.
