Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Iron Deficiency
Interventions
Other: Iron fortified flavoured skimmed milk with or without vitamin D in iron deficient women
Registration Number
NCT01739907
Lead Sponsor
National Research Council, Spain
Brief Summary

Iron deficiency and vitamin D deficiencies are common in menstruating women. The present assay studied the influence of the consumption of a flavoured skimmed milk with iron (iron pyrophosphate) or with iron and vitamin D3 in iron deficient women on:

* Iron metabolism

* Biomarkers of bone remodelling

* Cardiovascular risk indexes
