Abstract

Low birth weight (LBW) and other adverse birth outcomes, such as morbidity and mortality, are all significantly influenced by maternal undernutrition. The goal of the current study was to assess the prevalence of micronutrient deficiencies (vitamin B12, vitamin D, and iron deficiency anaemia) in prayagraj which made adverse affects on the health of mother and child nutrition. On the basis of the severity, 250 pregnant and breastfeeding women were chosen from the Mahewa Prayagraj. Furthermore, 50 severe expectant and nursing women were chosen to estimate their clinical symptoms and anthropometric measurements and for the estimation of biochemical profile, from two villages in the Prayagraj district: Mahewa Purab patti and Mahewa Pashchim patti. Data was collected by developing a questionnaire which consist information related to general profile, anthropometric measurement, dietary habits. The biochemical evaluation revealed vitamin D, hemoglobin, and vitamin B12 deficiency in the selected responders. Controlling child and maternal health group malnutrition, however, continues to be a concern in underdeveloped nations
