Clinical trials: Zinc Deficiency
Development, Iron Deficiency
Zinc, Iron, Vitamin A and Psychosocial Care for Child Growth and Development

Assessment of Zinc Intake From Enriched Water and Other Dietary Sources in Kisumu, Kenya
Introduction: The prevalence of low serum zinc in children under 5 in East Seme, Kisumu is 73.5% and this is likely due at least in part to low bioavailable zinc from the local cereal-based diet.
