Objective: to provide detailed information on iron status, body changes, food intake, hepatosomatic index, and body composition during recovery from severe iron deficiency anemia with fermented cow or goat milk. Material and methods: sixty male Wistar albino rats were divided into two experimental groups (control and anemic) and fed ad libitum an AIN-93G diet for 40 days, receiving a normal Fe diet (45 mg/kg of diet) or a low-Fe diet (5 mg/kg of diet), respectively. After induction of anemia, both the control and anemic groups were additionally fed for 30 days either a fermented cow milk-based or fermented goat milk-based diet with normal Fe content. Hematological and iron-related biochemical parameters, weight changes, food intake, hepatosomatic index, and body composition were assessed. Results: The hepatosomatic index was higher in the anemic group versus the control group. In both groups fed a fermented goat milk-based diet the hepatosomatic index was higher due to lower body weight and a higher liver weight. Food intake, weight gain, and total body fat were lower, whereas lean mass and free and total water were higher in the anemic group as compared to the control group. In both animal groups fed a fermented goat milk-based diet body weight and body fat were lower and the percentages of lean mass and free water and total water were higher. Conclusion: Iron deficiency decreased weight gain, lean mass, and body fat, indicating lower energy stores. Fermented goat milk-based diet recovers more efficiently iron status, decreased adiposity, and increased energy expenditure.
