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 ...
