Overview

Systematic review reveals micronutrient supplementation improves neonatal outcomes in LMICs, suggesting enhanced access could mitigate maternal anemia.

Key Points

  • Micronutrient supplementation improves maternal anemia and neonatal outcomes like low birth weight and preterm birth.
  • Multivitamin minerals show broader benefits than iron and folic acid, especially when combined with folate.
  • Barriers such as poor adherence and limited access hinder effective implementation of supplementation programs.
  • Strategies like SMS reminders and cost-benefit analyses support the viability of micronutrient investment for maternal health.
