Translating the demand effects into changes in iron-deficiency anaemia (IDA) prevalence among 6–23-month-old children from Faisalabad and Hyderabad districts, Pakistan. The figure shows that an increase in the consumption of fortified packaged complementary foods by 75 g (the recommended daily dose) shifts the Hb distribution to the right by 8·7 g/l and thus reduces the share of children with IDA by the area D. Area E represents the share of children with IDA who remain deficient even after the maximum intervention (Inline graphic , limit mild anaemia; Inline graphic , limit moderate anaemia; Inline graphic , limit severe anaemia; Inline graphic , average Hb before intervention; Inline graphic , average Hb with intervention)
