“…Therefore, the objective of this analysis was to describe and examine maternal and child correlates for markers of undernutrition, including poor growth and anemia among 10–18 month-old children living in urban slums of western Mumbai, India, an understudied vulnerable group. Additionally, this analysis will inform the selection and targeting of an appropriate population for a planned nutritional intervention of iron- and zinc-biofortified pearl millet (17, 18) in this setting (e.g., Clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT02233764) (19) as well as for future nutritional intervention trials in other low-resource settings (e.g., Clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT02648893).…”

Background: Young children living in urban slums are vulnerable to malnutrition and subsequently poor health outcomes, but data on the correlates of stunting, underweight, wasting, and anemia specifically among 10–18 month-old children in India remain limited. Objective: In this analysis, we sought to describe the prevalence of and examine correlates for different markers of undernutrition, including stunting, underweight, and anemia among 10–18 month-old children living in urban slums, an understudied vulnerable group. Methods: Children and their mothers ( n = 323) were screened for anthropometry, demographics, and complete blood counts for hemoglobin concentration between March and November 2017 (Clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT02233764). Correlates included child and mother's age, sex, birth order, birth weight, illness episodes, hemoglobin concentration, family income, maternal height, and maternal education level. Risk ratios (RR, 95% CI) for binary outcomes (stunting, underweight, wasting and anemia) and mean differences (β, 95% CI) for continuous outcomes (anthropometric Z-scores, hemoglobin concentration) were calculated using multivariate binomial and linear regression (SAS 9.4). Results: The prevalence of stunting was 31.2%, underweight 25.1%, wasting (9.0%), and anemia (76%) among all children. Male children had a higher prevalence of poor growth indices and lower anthropometric Z-scores than females. Male sex, low birthweight, shorter maternal height, report of ≥1 episodes of illness within the past month, older maternal age, and birth order ≥2 were also associated with poor growth and anemia in multivariate models. Correlates of undernutrition were different among females and males. Female children had a 40% (20, 60%) higher risk of anemia associated with diarrhea, and male children who were firstborn had a 20% (0, 70%) lower risk of anemia. Conclusions: These results show that poor growth and anemia among young children is prevalent in urban slums of Mumbai, and that sex of the child may play an important role in informing interventions to address undernutrition.

“…Tô and pancakes made with decorticated or whole pearl millet varied in acceptability: tô was only accepted made with control (local Gampela) pearl millet, while pancakes were consistently acceptable when made with variety GB 8735, either whole or decorticated, but only acceptable when variety Tabi was decorticated. 76 Bhakri made from Dhanashakti or a local variety 75 , 77 ; idli, mudde, and porridge, 24 and several dessert items (cookies, laddu, sheera, cake, nankhatai, sweet porridge, and puranpoli) and savory items (khichdi, upma, dhokla, idli, vegetable cutlet, kothimbir wadi, thempla, pav bhaji, pakoda, and vada), 14 , 15 made from Dhanashakti or control DG 9444 varieties were all acceptable. Finally, cookies made from either AHB or control MRB pearl millet were acceptable, either in a 70:30 or 60:40 ratio of whole wheat flour and germinated pearl millet flour.…”

“…Two studies measured young (6-month-old–24-month-old) children’s acceptance of biofortified pearl millet through biofortified pearl millet intake amount in rural Southern India 24 and in the urban slums of Mumbai 14 , 15 (see Table 8 for varieties). Children were given a weighed sample (additional servings were available ad libitum) and were fed until the child refused food.…”

Context It is important to understand the sensory acceptability of biofortified food products among target population groups if biofortification is to be realized as a sustainable strategy for mitigation of micronutrient deficiencies, able to be scaled up and applied through programs. Objective This systemic review aims to summarize and synthesize the sensory acceptability of conventionally bred iron-, zinc-, and provitamin A–biofortified food products. Data Sources MEDLINE (PubMed), AGRICOLA, AgEcon, CABI Abstracts (Web of Science), and organizational websites (eg, those of HarvestPlus and CGIAR and their partners) were searched for relevant articles. No access to any market research that may have been internally conducted for the commercial biofortified food products was available. Data Extraction This review identified articles measuring the sensory acceptability of conventionally bred biofortified food products. Extraction of the hedonic ratings of food products was performed. Data Analysis An “Acceptability Index %” was defined based on hedonic scoring to determine an overall rating, and used to categorize biofortified food products as “acceptable” (≥70%) or “not acceptable” (<70%). Additionally, this review narratively synthesized studies using methods other than hedonic scoring for assessing sensory acceptability. Conclusions Forty-nine studies assessed the acceptability of 10 biofortified crops among children and adults, in mostly rural, low-income settings across Africa, Latin America, and India; food products made from mineral and provitamin A–biofortified food products were generally acceptable. Compared with studies on provitamin–A biofortified food products, few studies (1 to 2 each) on mineral-enhanced crops such as rice, cowpeas, lentils, and wheat were found, limiting the generalizability of the findings. Similarly, few studies examined stored biofortified food products. Few commercial food products have so far been developed, although new varieties of crops are being continuously tested and released globally. Certain crop varieties were found to be acceptable while others were not, suggesting that particular varieties should be prioritized for scale-up. Determining sensory acceptability of biofortified food products is important for informing programmatic scale-up and implementation across diverse populations and settings.

“…Culturally acceptable PM-based complementary foods were developed by SNDT University and tested for their acceptability and palatability among both caregivers and children in a pilot study [29]. The FeZnPM and CPM were similar in color, taste, and phytochemical composition and content [29,30]. Highly accepted recipes were included in a cyclic menu (see Table S1).…”
