We were surprised at how
common low or marginal status
was for these micronutrients. , Prof. Keith Godfrey, epidemiologist and lead author of the

For the individual, the simple answer
is that unless you’re following a really
high-quality diet, you may need
to consider taking a supplement, Prof. Keith Godfrey, epidemiologist and lead author of the
study at the University of Southampton, via 'The Guardian'.
The Nipper study reportedly looked to investigate
how combinations of nutrients and probiotics could
improve the health of mothers and their babies.
More work needs to be done
to identify the ideal quantities,
but certainly the amounts we gave,
which you can purchase over
the counter at the chemist,
were sufficient to substantially
reduce the prevalence of deficiency, Prof. Keith Godfrey, epidemiologist and lead author of the
study at the University of Southampton, via 'The Guardian'.
The team's findings were published
in the journal 'PLOS Medicine.'.

note that the researchers received grants from Nestlé
and are co-inventors of enhanced supplements. .
