ABSTRACT
Objective. To analyze the association between supplements
and Liconsa milk intake, with anemia, zinc (ZD) and iron (ID)
deficiencies, and morbidity in Mexican children resident of less
than 100 000 habitants’ localities.
Materials and methods.
A subsample of 1 516 children aged 1-4 participants of Ensanut
100k was analyzed, carried out in 2018. Anemia was considered
if [Hb]‹11 g/dL, ZD if [Zn]‹65 µg/dL and ID if [ferritin]‹12
µg/L. Supplements and Liconsa milk consumption were obtained
from a semi-quantitative food frequency; morbidity by
self-report of the mother. Multiple logistic regression models
were used adjusted by confounders.
Results. Medium and
high consumption of Liconsa milk was associated to lower odds
of ID (OR=0.02, [95%CI 0.002,0.24] and OR=0.07, [95%CI
0.01,0.52]) and anemia (OR=0.13, [95%CI 0.04,0.37] and
OR=0.17, [95%CI 0.03,0.87]). A high intake of Liconsa milk
(OR=0.09, [95%CI 0.01,0.44]) and Vitaniño (OR=0.05 [95%CI
0.005, 0.46]) were both associated to lower diarrhea risk.
Conclusions. To assure the continuity of the consumption
of nutritional supplements is necessary for improving the health
and the micronutrients status in vulnerable Mexican children.
