Health Education and Promotion Interventions to Mitigate Geophagic Practise: A Scoping Review

Abstract

It is concluded that the existing health education and promotion interventions that can assist women of reproductive age to cease the practise of geophagia are not effective. More emphasis should be given to the establishment of health education awareness programmes on the practise of geophagy, nutrition, and iron and folic acids uptake at community level.
