Background :

It is important to tackle the issue of malnutrition at an early stage. A stunted mother has a tendency of having adverse neonatal outcomes including growth restriction.

This study aims to assess the impact of family-based health education programs plus zinc supplementation on the important biomarker of pregnancy and neonatal growth.

Objective :
