Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of using high calories, multi-micronutrients fortified milk Care100Gold on micronutrient deficiency in children 36-60 months old in Tien Hai district, Thai Binh province. Methods: a controlled intervention trial study was carried out on 179 children 36-60 months old who are not overweight and obese. Children were given 180ml of milk, 2 times a day. The intervention group used high calories powder milk fortified with multi-micronutrients named Care100Gold, the control group used milk without multi-micronutrients. Results: after 4 months of intervention, the increase in serum iron and serum hemoglobin concentration in the intervention group was statistically significantly higher than that of the control group (3.85mcmol/L compared to 0.1mcmol/L and 8.0g/L compared with 4.1g/L; p<0.05). Serum ferritin, serum zinc and IgA of intervention group tended to higher than that of the control group but not statistically significant. Conclusions: Using high calories milk fortified with multi-micronutrients Care100Gold effectively improved iron deficiency anemia and zinc deficiency as well as tended to increase immune indicators in children 36-60 months after 4 months of intervention.
