The results showed that the average postpartummothers in this study were 27 years old and about 42% of postpartum mothers had completed their education upto high school level. The average frequency of maternal ARI in the Forti A group was lower compared to the 2vitA,1vitA and educational groups (0.04, 0.31, 0.95, and 0.29, respectively) (p<0.000). Likewise, it is also found in theduration of respiratory infection for each group of; 0.17, 0.99, 3.16, and 1.07 day, respectively (p<0.000). Oilfortification with vitamin A can reduce the incidence of morbidity.
