Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

This is a very important topic. However, the most recent DHS survey with relevant data was conducted in 2018, six years ago. It only contained 50 pregnant women in the urban parts of Enugu state. Because of the date and small sample size, I don't believe the information would have much value for you. Moreover, you would have to work with the data files for this specific a subpopulation. Some general information about food consumption is in chapter 11 of the final report on the survey (https://www.dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/FR359/FR359.pdf).
