From Hunger to Hope
The problem we face
“Poor nutrition causes nearly half (45 per cent) of deaths in children under five – 3.1 million children each year” -United Nations
Starts in the fetus
Poor quantity and quality of protein intake by pregnant women leads to IUGR, (Intrauterine Growth Restriction).
Affects Newborns
It critically affects the neurodevelopmental which has long term effects on the child.
Continues on a chain effect
Undernourished Kids with smaller brains will experience difficulties to learn, and fulfil their personal potential. At a macro-level this affects a community or a country’s productivity!
Our Solution
The expected size of our planet's population by 2050 is 10 billion people. The reality is that as it is today, our food system is not sustainable to meet demand growth for the next decades.
So, how do we feed them? Theres is no wrong or right, neither a single answer, but it's clear that:
Transformation is inevitable.
Solutions need to focus on creating more sustainable, dynamic and safe systems.
Our solution at Nurture is a yeast-based Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF). This innovative option provides a high-quality source of protein and essential nutrients, offering a sustainable alternative to resource-intensive animal meat. We are here to feed people in all age groups and gender. Our focus is to be there for women and their baby during and after pregnancy as this is "critical period" in their life where protein intake is essential.
