Pakistan needs a system approach to combat poor food quality with micronutrient deficiency, contamination from pathogens and residues of chemicals and pesticides. Insufficient intake of balanced diets rich in proteins, vitamins and micronutrients (Fe, Zn), folates, affordability/accessibility to food rich in nutrition, adulteration, lack of education about healthy food and imbalanced food habits are main reasons for stunted growth in children and anaemia due to Iron deficiency in women, which is increasing at alarming rate
