Brain food boost: can a simple nutrient fix Malnutrition's hidden harm?
NCT ID NCT06154174
Summary
This study is testing if adding a nutrient called choline to the special food given to treat severe malnutrition helps children's brain development. Researchers in Malawi will give 1500 malnourished children, aged 6-59 months, either the standard therapeutic food or the food with extra choline. The main goal is to see if the choline helps the children score better on thinking and development tests several months later.
