Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if rice enriched in iron will help women with iron-deficient anemia restore their blood counts more efficiently than the standard rice not enriched with iron.

Primary Outcome

Change in reticulocyte typically count in the iron-fortified rice group compared to the regular rice group. This is a test that measures how rapidly immature red blood cells called reticulocytes are made by the bone marrow and released into the blood.
