الوصف: To strengthen community-based treatment of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in Indonesia, locally produced ready-to-use therapeutic foods (RUTFs) are needed, but data on their acceptability and effectiveness are lacking. We conducted an individually randomized controlled trial in 302 children (6–59 months old) with uncomplicated SAM receiving 8 weeks of a standard RUTF (CON) or one of four alternative RUTFs produced with locally available ingredients: soybean (SOY), mungbean (MUN1, MUN2) or peanuts (PEA). The main outcomes were weight gain and product acceptability. Children consumed on average 2.2 kg of standard RUTF, but up to 4.5 kg of the local products (MUN2, p < 0.05). Mean weight gain did not differ across the groups (p > 0.05). Controlled for consumption, children receiving either CON or SOY RUTF gained >2 g/kg body weight (BW)/day compared with 1.6 g/kg BW/day in children receiving the other RUTF products (p > 0.05). Overall drop-out was 29.1%, ranging from 21.3% (MUN2) to 38.3% (CON, p > 0.05). Mean time to drop out was 19 days in the CON group, significantly shorter than in the PEA group (33.6 days, p < 0.05). Thus, with no difference in weight gain and better acceptance, the development of locally produced RUTFs in Indonesia is warranted to strengthen the community-based treatment of SAM.
