The true extent of nutritional iron deficiency (ID) in childhood is unclear because of uncertainty over its definition and the insensitivity of markers of ID. The major cause is likely to be the excessive and early use of cow's milk. Recent neurophysiological observations support the many field studies correlating ID with cognitive developmental delays. Prevention is best sought through supplementation of essential foods.
由于儿童营养性缺铁（ID）的定义存在不确定性以及ID标志物不敏感，其真实程度尚不清楚。主要原因可能是过量且过早饮用牛奶。最近的神经生理学观察结果支持了许多将ID与认知发育迟缓相关联的现场研究。最好通过补充必需食物来进行预防。
