2.5.2. Intervention-2: Yogurt Supplement plus Nutrition Education Enhanced with Self-Monitoring Using pictorial Calendar (Yogurt-Plus Group)
In addition to the above nutritional education activities, this group received a cup of yogurt (50 g) every day delivered to the households by an FRA. Yogurt was introduced to the children after one week of regular complementary feeding following the first nutrition education session. Children were, on average, 190 days old when yogurt was first introduced. The FRAs tried to ensure that the yogurt was fed to the index child in his/her presence; if the yogurt was left for later feeding, mothers were asked to feed it within two hours of delivery.
