Description

Vitamin A:

plays an important role in vision and bone growth and helps protect the body from infections. Vitamin A also promotes the health and growth of cells and tissues in the body, particularly those in the hair, nails, and skin.

Iron:

Deficiency of iron is reported to cause several behavioural disturbances in children. These children are irritable, disruptive, have a short attention span and lack interest in the surroundings.

Iodine:

• Iodine deficiency is the main cause of brain damage in childhood. It results in impaired cognitive and motor development which affects a child’s performance at school.
• Severe iodine deficiency during childhood has harmful effects on the development of the brain and nervous system. The effects of mild iodine deficiency during childhood are more difficult to measure, but mild iodine deficiency might cause subtle problems with neurological development.

Zinc oxide:

Zinc is an essential trace element that plays a role in growth, tissue repair and wound healing, carbohydrate tolerance, synthesis of testicular hormones, and the immune response. Zinc intake is closely related to protein intake; as a result, zinc deficiency is an important component of nutritionally related morbidity worldwide. Symptoms attributable to severe zinc depletion include growth failure, primary hypogonadism, skin disease, impaired taste and smell, and impaired immunity and resistance to infection. Zinc supplementation or food fortification in populations at risk for zinc deficiency appears to have beneficial effects on the incidence and outcome of serious childhood infectious diseases.
