How much do you know about chronic malnutrition?
In the first 1,000 days of life, the human brain makes the connections it needs to grow and thrive all the way to adulthood.
Without healthy nutrition, we don’t make those connections and our immune systems are compromised for life.
Together with UNITLIFE and Ecobank Foundation, we are calling on all Africans to come together to help eradicate chronic malnutrition in our children – so they can make the connections they need to lead rewarding lives.

4 年Pierre, YES! Along with nutrition there is also a lot of somatic awareness and primitive reflex development that happens in the early years. I would love to help any way I can if you ever want to dive deeper into this!!!
