Knowledge, Attitudes, Practices, and Misconceptions Regarding Vitamins in Blood Metabolism and Anemia Among University Students: A One Center Cross‐Sectional Study in Ghana

These findings emphasize the need for targeted, campus-based nutrition education that not only improves knowledge but also actively corrects misconceptions to reduce anemia burden.
