A Nutritionist, Uju Onuorah says transitioning from Iron and Folic Acids for pregnant women to Multiple Micronutrient Supplements, will significantly enhance nutrition for both mother and foetus.
She said this in Abuja, Capital of Nigeria, during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria.
NAN reports that the Federal Government is set to commence MMS to enhance nutrition for pregnant women and ensure they deliver healthy babies.
