Summary

A cross-sectional study with 829 older Mexican adults were recruited from July to September 2015, from four localities in the southern region of México. Older adults were interviewed at their homes and a fasting blood sample was obtained for analysis of micronutrient status (iron deficiency, vitamin B12 deficiency, folate deficiency, vitamin A deficiency and biomarkers of inflammation). The aim of the study was to identify the main causes of anemia in older adults with higher rates of anemia according to the recent data of the Mexican National Health and Nutrition Survey.
