a. Sabita is blind from a diet devoid of fortified milk, animal products, or dark yellow and orange fruits and vegetables. - Vitamin A

Sabita is suffering from Vitamin A deficiency. A lack of Vitamin A usually shows itself with night blindness but can cause complete blindness if not acted upon quickly.

Vitamin A deficiency is quite common in developing or poorer nations such as the area Sabita is located and usually attacks children of women in their reproductive stage. Sources of vitamin A include; fortified milk, animal products and fruits and vegetables.

b.  Sabita has an enlarged thyroid gland due to a dependence on unfortified salt. - Iodine

Iodine deficiency leads to an abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland leading to a condition known as Goiter which presents itself as a big bulge in a person's neck. Iodine is usually placed in fortified salt along with iron to reduce iodine deficiency so Sabita's dependence on unfortified salt is robbing her of a great source of Iodine.
