Different Efficacy of IFA Supplementation Among Obese and Non-obese Women
Sponsor: Griffith University
Summary
This clinical trial aims to learn if there is a relationship between OWT/OB and IDA in nonpregnant women of reproductive age and its impact on iron supplementation. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there any independent association between overweight/obesity and iron deficiency anemia in nonpregnant women after controlling for potential confounding factors? * Does the effect of iron supplementation on iron status vary between overweight/obese and normal-weight nonpregnant women (as measured by multiple iron biomarkers)? Researchers will compare several biomarkers between the case and control groups after the intervention is given for 90 days. Participants will: * Visit the research center before the intervention given and after 90 days * Take daily iron-folic acid supplements for 90 days * Keep a diary of their supplement's intake

The major thing distinguishing this clinical study from another clinical trial is that we differentiate intervention based on nutritional status as we want to observe whether different nutritional status, especially overweight/obese will diminish the effect of IFA supplementation.
