Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a global issue, especially in developing countries. Iron fortification and supplementation are not enough to combat the burden of IDA in the community so far. Biofortification through Pseudomonas putida IFO 14796 intervention has improved iron content in maize grain (IBM) up to 18.79% to 10.1117 mg kg-1. In addition, the research carried out using female Wistar rats as a model showed that the intake of IBM significantly improves erythrocyte and hemoglobin formation. Intake IBM of more than 10% bodyweight negatively affects RBC formation. There for, this research was carried out for evaluating the effect of IBM against bodyweight of anemic female Wistar rats. The result was IBM improving the body weight up to 0.0109% d-1 was significantly different from others at p<0.05. The body weight tends to increase with the IBM level following the equation Y=0.005x-0.0096. The maximum safe level of IBM for the body weight was 14%.
