Welcome to a new week_ π
*Did you know?*
π₯ One in three children are malnourished.
π₯ One in five will become anaemic.
π₯ One in seven will suffer severe growth defects.
π These are not just numbers, they are children around us.
π
As we celebrate this festive season, what we put on the table matters, especially for our children. πβ¨
π Fish, especially farmed fish is one of the best, most accessible sources of high-quality protein for children:
π Rich in essential amino acids needed for growth
π Packed with iron, zinc, calcium and vitamins that help fight anaemia
π Contains omega-3 fatty acids that support brain development
π Easier to digest and often more affordable than many animal proteins
π₯ In Nigeria, fish is available in many forms β fresh, smoked, dried β making it one of the most practical nutrition solutions for households during and after the festivities.
π
This season, letβs not just celebrate with plenty food β
π Letβs celebrate with nutritious food.
π Letβs put more fish on childrenβs plates.
πͺ Healthy children today mean a stronger generation tomorrow. ππ
