Iron and the human gut microbiome

Iron is a growth-limiting nutrient for many gut
pathogens, but beneficial bacteria require little
or no iron

Lactobacilli)

Home fortification with multiple micronutrient
powders sharply reduces iron-deficiency anemia

Double-blind, cluster randomized trial in Ghanian children
(6-35 months, n = 1958)
Received daily MNP with iron (12.5 mg/d) or without iron for 5
months followed by 1-month of further monitoring
Insecticide-treated bed nets provided at enrollment

During intervention, 23% more children admitted to
hospital in Fe group, nonsignificant increase in diarrhea

6 month RCT rural Ivorian schoolchildren (n=139)

electrolytic iron vs. control
No benefit on anemia or iron status
Stool samples collected at baseline (before intro of Fe) and after
6 months of fortification

Safer MNP formulations are needed
2 Strategies
②Add a component that could mitigate the adverse effects of the iron on
the gut microbiome
• Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) → Prebiotic to maintain/promote
beneficial barrier bacteria (e.g Bifidobacterium spp.)

1. Iron absorption study in Kenyan infants
Objective
Determine if prebiotic (GOS) consumption daily for 3 weeks
affects iron absorption from a MNP containing a mixture of
ferrous fumarate and sodium iron EDTA (FeFum+NaFeEDTA)
in Kenyan infants.
| 07.12.2017 | 28
Iron absorption using stable isotopes in Kenyan infants:
prefeeding of GOS increased iron absorption 60% and
absorption from the 5mg FeGOS MNP was high: 18.8%

4 month RCT in Kenyan infants
Study Aim
Evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new MNP formula with a low dose (5 mg)
of highly bioavailable iron as NaFeEDTA (2.5 mg) and ferrous fumarate (2.5 mg)
and the prebiotic galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS)
Hypotheses
1. A MNP formula containing 5mg of highly bioavailable iron would reduce
anemia
2. The addition of GOS to the MNP would mitigate the adverse effects of iron
on the infant gut microbiome and inflammation | 07.12.2017 | 30
