Educational program +Oral Iron therapy
The Nutritional Education Program is a structured intervention designed to enhance caregivers' understanding of nutrition and improve dietary practices for children suffering from iron deficiency anemia. The program comprises six weekly workshops lasting 1.5 hours each, focusing on essential topics such as the importance of iron in child development, identifying and preparing iron-rich foods, and practical meal planning strategies. Participants will engage in hands-on cooking demonstrations and receive educational materials, including recipe cards and meal planning tools, to support their learning. Knowledge assessments will be conducted at the beginning and end of the program to measure improvements in caregivers' nutritional knowledge.
