India has the maximum number of anaemic women and children in the world(2). As per the recent National Family Health Survey-4 (2015-16), about 58% children (6-59 months), 53% women (15-49 y) and 23% men were suffering from various degrees of anaemia(3). Aanaemia affects the general health of the total population taking toll for high mortality as well as morbidity and attenuating the optimal expression of the potentials of both physical and mental capacity of our population. Improving nutritional status of the vulnerable sections of the population and reducing anaemia is of paramount importance for improving health and the human capital development in the country(4).Journal ArticleIndiaIndian Council of Medical Research, New DelhiNational Institute of Nutrition, HyderabadPublic Health Evidence South Asia (Manipal University)AIIMS BhubaneswarSociety for Applied studies, New Delhi,Public Health Evidence South Asia (Manipal University)Indian Council of Medical Research, New Delhi
