Multiple Micronutrient Supplements (MMS) is a nutritional supplement for use during pregnancy based on United Nations International Multiple Micronutrient Antenatal Preparation (UNIMMAP) formulation following WFIO specification. It contains 15 micronutrients including Iron and Folic Acid (IFA) at dosages that approximate the recommended dietary allowances for pregnancy. Micronutrients are only needed in very small quantities but are essential for normal physiological function, growth and development. Deficiencies of micronutrients such as vitamin A, iron, iodine and folate are particularly very common during pregnancy due to increased nutrient requirements of the mother and developing fetus. These deficiencies can negatively impact the health of the mother, her pregnancy, as well as the health of the newborn baby. Recent evidence shows that the provision of MMS for women starting early in pregnancy provides clear benefits for both women and their unborn and newborn infants, beyond IFA supplementation alone. MMS can improve birth outcomes significantly by reducing the risk of low birth weight (LBW), being born small-for-gestational age (SGA), and preterm births.
