Can written information and communication through email and text messages improve knowledge of dietary iron, iron intake, and iron status in women with mild iron deficiency?

This study is a 12-week randomised controlled trial testing one intervention. Participants in the intervention group will receive a booklet containing factsheets about iron and a goal system promote dietary habits that may maximise iron absorption. The goal system encourages participants to 1) eat two iron-fortified products each day, 2) eat 50 mg of vitamin C with meals, 3) using a point system where foods are assigned points depending on iron content, consume at least 12 points per day, and 4) drink coffee/tea away from meals. Participants will be encouraged to follow the goals through weekly emails and text messages.
