    Abstract:
    A cross-sectional study was conducted among 775 adolescent girls (11-18 years) residing in a slum of Delhi to assess plasma vitamin C levels. The mean (SD) plasma levels of vitamin C were 0.76 (0.45) mg/dL. Overall, 6.3% and 27.6% girls had deficient (<0.2 mg/dL) and suboptimal levels (0.2-0.49 mg/dL) of plasma vitamin C, respectively.
