الوصف: Background: The most common micronutrient deficiencies in Ecuadorian schoolchildren are vitamin A (VA), zinc, and iron. The objective of the present study was to test the efficacy of cow's milk as a vehicle for VA, zinc, and iron supplementation. Methods: Three hundred twenty-eight children aged 6-10 years were included in a randomized, double blind controlled study; 173 children received 480 mL of whole milk (300 Kcals; G1) daily and 155 children received fortified milk (300 Kcals; G2) daily for 23 weeks. Participants had a nutritional evaluation before and after supplementation. Both treatment groups were comparable for gender, age, weight and height at the beginning of the study. Results: Both types of milk were well accepted by the participating children. Data showed that serum concentrations of VA, zinc, and iron significantly increased within both treatment groups. The increase in serum concentrations of the indicated micronutrients was significantly greater in children with deficiencies than in non-deficient ones. There were not significant differences in serum concentrations of VA, zinc, and iron between groups after supplementation. Data also showed that there was an increase in the percentage of children with normal BMI at the expense of a decrease of the percentage of children with excess weight at the end of the treatment period in G1 whereas in G2 it remained unchanged. Blood lipid profiles were normal before and after milk supplementation in both treatment groups. Conclusions: These data indicated that fortified and non-fortified milk are excellent options to increase serum VA, zinc, and iron concentration in schoolchildren.

Resumen Introducción: las deficiencias de vitamina A (VA), zinc y hierro son las más comunes en escolares ecuatorianos. El objetivo del presente estudio fue estudiar la eficacia de la leche de vaca como vehículo para la suplementación de VA, zinc y hierro. Métodos: trescientos veintiocho niños en edades entre 6 y 10 años fueron incluidos en un estudio aleatorizado controlado, doble ciego durante 23 semanas; 173 niños recibieron diariamente 480 mL de leche entera (300 Kcals; G1) y 155 niños recibieron leche entera fortificada (300 Kcals, G2). Los niños tuvieron una evaluación nutricional antes y después de la suplementación. Al inicio del estudio, G1 y G2 fueron similares en género, edad, peso, y talla. Los dos tipos de leche fueron bien aceptados. Resultados: las concentraciones séricas de VA, zinc y hierro aumentaron significativamente en ambos grupos después del tratamiento. El aumento de estos micronutrientes fue significativamente mayor en los niños con deficiencias. No hubo diferencias significativas en las concentraciones de VA, zinc y hierro entre los grupos después de la suplementación. Además, hubo un incremento en el porcentaje de niños con IMC-normal dependiente de una disminución en el número de niños con exceso de peso al final del periodo de tratamiento en G1, mientras que en G2 no hubo cambios. Los perfiles lipídicos fueron normales antes y después de la suplementación con leche en los dos grupos. Conclusiones: en resumen, tanto la leche fortificada como la no fortificada son excelentes opciones para aumentar las concentraciones de VA, zinc y hierro en escolares.

الوصف: Currently, the most common micronutrient deficiencies in Ecuador are: Zn, vitamin A, and Fe deficits in all age groups. These deficiencies have been associated with short stature, immune‐defects, sight deficiency, anemia, and diminished cognitive performance. Several micronutrient supplementation programs have been implemented with limited impact. These programs have had poor acceptability by the consumer due to poor palatability of the supplements, the forms of supplementation such as pills, snacks, and additives for meals that could interfere with the absorption of micronutrients. An ideal vehicle of micronutrient supplementation would be a common food that would provide a good source of micro‐ and macronutrients. The appropriate combination of micro‐ and macronutrients would provide a complete nutritional meal that could be better metabolized. The objective of the present study was to test the usefulness of cow milk as a vehicle for Zn, vitamin A, and Fe supplementation. Three hundred twenty eight children aged 6 – 10 were included in a double blind controlled study, 173 children received daily 480 mL of whole milk (300 Kcals; Zn = 1.96 mg, Fe = 0.14 mg, vit A = 136 ug; G1) and 155 children fortified milk (Zn = 7.16 mg, Fe = 4.56 mg, vit A = 360 ug; G2) for 23 weeks. All children received daily 2 glasses of milk one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Participants had a complete nutritional evaluation before and after milk supplementation that included a clinical evaluation, anthropometry, and laboratory analysis. The IRB of Universidad de las Américas approved the study. Both groups G1 and G2 were comparable for age, weight and height at the beginning of the study; in addition, a similar number of boys and girls were distributed in the 2 groups. Both types of milk were well accepted by the participating children. Data showed that serum concentrations of Zn, vitamin A, and Fe significantly increased within both treatment groups, Table 1 . The increase in serum concentrations of the indicated ...

الوصف: Currently under and over‐nutrition are common public health problems among school children worldwide including Ecuador. Massive nutritional interventions to improve the indicated nutritional abnormalities should consider a common food that would provide a good source of macro‐ and micronutrients. However, universal measures of supplementation are challenging due to the diverse epidemiological composition of the school children population. The objective of the present study was to determine the changes in anthropometry and lipid profile of schoolchildren aged 6 to 10 supplemented with fortified (Zn, Vit A, and Fe) and unfortified cow's milk. Three hundred twenty eight children aged 6 – 10 were included in a double blind controlled study, 173 children received daily 480 mL of whole milk (300 Kcals; Zn = 1.96 mg, Fe = 0.14 mg, vit A = 136 ug; G1) and 155 children fortified milk (Zn = 7.16 mg, Fe = 4.56 mg, vit A = 360 ug; G2) for 23 weeks. All children received 2 glasses of milk, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Children had a complete nutritional evaluation that included a clinical examination, anthropometry, and laboratory analysis before and after the intervention. The Institutional review board (IRB) of Universidad de Las Américas approved the study. Anthropometric and blood biochemistry data were analyzed as percentiles based on age and gender. At the beginning of the study, both groups were comparable for age, weight and height; in addition, a similar number of boys and girls were distributed in the 2 groups. Both fortified and non‐fortified milks were well accepted by children. Data indicated that both treatments resulted in significant height gain during the study, G1: 117.3 ± 9cm to 120.7 ± 9cm vs G2: 118.1 ± 8cm to 121.3 ± 7cm. Data also showed that after milk supplementation the percentage of children with BMI between 85 th and 95 th percentiles increased in both treatment groups, Table 1 . There were not statistical differences in BMI between groups after the supplementation. Blood lipid ...
