Iron is vital to early childhood health, growth and development, and for lifelong wellness, lowering the risk of diarrhea, measles, malaria and pneumonia. Yet a lack of iron is the world's most widespread micronutrient deficiency. This project will fortify a common staple - dal (dehulled lentil, pea, chickpea) - to triple iron intake in the diets of high-risk populations.
