Abstract
The report presents the results of the Rang-Din Nutrition Study (RDNS) in Bangladesh, a cluster-randomized trial that tested the effectiveness of lipid-based nutrient supplements (LNS) in reducing maternal and child undernutrition during the 1,000 day window. The report focuses on the cost-effectiveness of the LNS supplements in preventing newborn stunting and improving child growth at 18 months. It provides an overview of the study, including the methodology, results, and cost-effectiveness analysis of the interventions. The report aims to provide decision-makers with information on the efficiency of investments in nutrition interventions to achieve agreed-upon objectives.
