Mushroom cultivation is one of the most promising enterprises capable of recycling agricultural waste, generate new employment opportunities, augment income without competing for large land space and produce highly nutritious food which has a place in the domestic market. Mushrooms have rightly been recommended by the Food and Agricultural Organization as a food, with delicious flavour and biting texture with good sources of vitamins and minerals. They are low caloric, cholesterol free, high fibre and good quality ash food. These attributes make mushroom a dieter's delight.

Low availability and poor absorption of iron and repeated and closely spaced pregnancies place a constant drain on the iron stores of pregnant women. The increased iron requirement during pregnancy often outstrip the available supply of iron and induce low level of haemoglobin and haematocrit values resulting in decreased oxygen carrying capacity and impairment in foetal growth. Thus iron deficiency anaemia during pregnancy may be on important risk factor contributing to the high incidence of low birth weight. This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between the maternal iron status and birth weight of infants of selected mothers.- Book Review
