Weekly iron-folic acid boosts anemia fight in Indonesian adolescent girls.
Anemia is a big health issue for teenage girls in Indonesia. They are given iron-folic acid supplements every week to help with this. A study was done in Ambon City to see why some girls still have anemia and don't take their supplements regularly. The researchers looked at three high schools in the area. They found that factors like education level and knowledge about anemia were linked to anemia and supplement adherence.
