It is evident that intermittent iron supplementation is better than daily supplementation in two aspects: iron absorption is more effcient and has insignificant side effects in contrast to the daily dose. The significantly higher daily iron loss observed in the daily iron supplemented groups rats also suggests alterations in total body iron metabolism. Based on serum ferritin distribution patterns, intermittent iron supplementation avoids temporary iron overload with daily iron supplemented. We conclude that weekly iron supplementation scheme is safer and easier to administer. This feasibIe strategy for the control of iron deficient anemia in pregnant women and children would be an effective iron-supplementation program (Baily et al, 1993)
