Study: Having children three years apart can prevent child stunting
Having children at least three years apart can help prevent stunting in children, says a study carried out in India.
The study, based on data of 223,662 children aged under five in India s National Family Health Survey-4 (NFHS-4), carried out during 2015 2016, shows that firstborn children were typically taller than later-born children when the time interval between the births was less than three years.

Adequate spacing between births can reduce stunting in children
Adequate spacing between births can help to alleviate the likelihood of stunting in children, according to a new study from the Tata-Cornell Institute for Agriculture and Nutrition (TCI).
In an article published in the
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, TCI postdoctoral associate Sunaina Dhingra and Director Prabhu Pingali find that differences in height between firstborn and later-born children may be due to inadequate time between births. When children are born at least three years after their older siblings, the height gap between them disappears. ....
