Abstract
This study conducts a comprehensive exploration of the epidemiological correlates of nutritional anemia in adolescent girls. Nutritional anemia remains a significant public health concern, particularly affecting this vulnerable demographic group due to rapid growth, dietary deficiencies, and menstrual losses. Through a detailed analysis of demographic data, dietary patterns, and biochemical markers, this research aims to elucidate the multifaceted factors contributing to the prevalence and severity of nutritional anemia. The findings underscore the importance of targeted interventions focusing on dietary diversification, nutritional supplementation, and health education to mitigate the burden of anemia and promote overall health in adolescent girls.
