Can a simple nutrient stop malnutrition from worsening in children?
NCT ID NCT06214897
Summary
This study is testing if adding a nutrient called choline to a special ready-to-eat food helps children with moderate malnutrition get better and prevents them from deteriorating into severe, life-threatening malnutrition. It will involve 1,500 young children in Malawi, who will receive either the new choline-enriched food or the standard version for up to 12 weeks. The main goal is to see if the new food leads to better recovery and fewer cases of severe malnutrition.
