Data reported that 96% of children had ≥1 micronutrient deficiency and 39% had ≥3 micronutrient deficiencies. It was noted that 86% of children had vitamin C deficiency, 87% had 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency, 50% had zinc deficiency, and 13% had vitamin A deficiency. Overall, the authors concluded that dietary intake was not associated with status of micronutrient deficiency.
