This study in Ghana examined perceptions of lipid-based nutrient supplements compared with capsules in a long-term follow-up of a maternal and infant supplementation trial. The authors found that parents perceived a range of benefits, and perceptions did not differ between capsules and lipid-based supplements. The results suggest that in similar contexts, supplementation may be highly acceptable and specific responses can help shape messaging to accompany supplements.
