In under developed countries like Iran, because of cultural and economic poverty, most CHILDREN have malnutrition which will be result in physical and psychological GROWTH DISORDERs. In as much as zinc is one of the most important and essential elements in metabolism of different substances and human growth, this study was conducted to determine the effect of ZINC SUPPLEMENTATION on percentile weight of CHILDREN with GROWTH DISORDERs. Materials and Methods: In order to investigate the effect of zinc sulfate syrup on increasing the weight and percentile weight of CHILDREN, a double-blind clinical trial was conducted in 70 CHILDREN aging 9 to 36 months. The subjects lacked any associated disease - by laboratory testing. Thirty-five CHILDREN consume zinc sulfate syrup 0.6% for three months (case group) and other consume daily placebo for the same time and dose (control group). The increase of WEIGHT PERCENTILE of CHILDREN was measured in three times with the interval of one month. Results: Our findings showed that during three months, the average amount of increasing in WEIGHT PERCENTILE was 4.5% and 3.7%, respectively.
