Participants were recruited at \u226420 gestational weeks (gw) and randomly assigned to consume daily (1) 60\u2010mg iron and folic acid (IFA); (2) 20\u2010mg iron plus 17 micronutrients in a capsule (MMN); or (3) lipid\u2010based nutrient supplement (LNS; 118\u00a0kcal) with 20\u2010mg iron plus 21 micronutrients, protein, and fat.
