Abstract
Global data shows that 56% of pregnant women in low and middle income countries (LMIC) have anemia.2 The Prevalence of anemia is highest between pregnant women in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) (57%), followed by pregnant women in Southeast Asia (48%), and lowest prevalence (24.1%) was found among pregnant women in South America.4 Tanzania Demographic and Health Surveys reported a slight reduce in the prevalence of anemia between pregnant women from 58% in 2004/05 to 53% in 2010. (5, 6) Other studies conducted in Tanzania have reported a higher prevalence of anemia among pregnant women: 68% in Dar es Salaamand 47% in Moshi.7,8
