The aim of this research was to determine the impact of the strategy of multi-micronutrient supplementation (MMN) on the childhood anemia in three Andean regions of Peru. A sentinel surveillance system was established in 29 health centers of Andahuaylas, Ayacucho and Huancavelica (Peru) to monitor a cohort of children of 6 to 35 months of age whom been received MMM for a period of 12 months. Data regarding hemoglobin levels were gathered at the beginning and at the end of the research; they included consumption of MMN, and other data from clinical records and from growth and development charts. Between the child who completed the supplementation, the prevalence of anemia decreased from 70.2% to 36.6% (p value <0.01). 55,0% and 69,1% of children with mild and moderate anemia at the beginning of the supplementation got cured. This research shows that supplementation with MMN could be a valuable strategy to fight anemia
