Micronutrient supplements can promote disruptive protozoan and fungal communities in the developing infant gut
Micronutrient supplements are key to global efforts to address child malnutrition. Here, in a cohort of children, previously enrolled into a large cluster randomized controlled trial of micronutrient supplementation in Pakistan, Popovic et al. find that vitamins and iron increase carriage of protozo...
