Meeting macro- and micronutrient requirements during pregnancy and early childhood is crucial for short- and long-terra health and cognitive function. Meta-analyses confirm that supplementation or fortification of food with the 'big four' (vitamin A, iron, zinc, and iodine) is efficacious to reduce the risk of infections disease and improves growth and cognitive outcome.

Quel est le sujet du livre "Meeting Micronutrient Requirements for Health and Development"
Meeting macro- and micronutrient requirements during pregnancy and early childhood is crucial for short- and long-terra health and cognitive function. Meta-analyses confirm that supplementation or fortification of food with the 'big four' (vitamin A, iron, zinc, and iodine) is efficacious to reduce the risk of infections disease and improves growth and cognitive outcome. More recently, folate and vitamin B12 deficiencies during pregnancy have been shown to be associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcome and childhood obesity.
The papers collected in the book at hand address the fact that maternal and fetal deficiencies can induce inadéquate metabolic programming in the offspring, with increased risk for non-communicable diseases lacer in life. World-renowned experts in the fields of epidemiology and nutritional intervention met with Chose in genetics, epigenetics, and metabolic outcome to clarify the pathogenesis of micronutrient deficiencies in pregnancy and childhood, préventive methods and stratégies, and opportunities for treatment.
