It’s easy to take for granted everything we have, especially the basics, like nutrition. As moms we strive to feed our children well and to make sure they are getting the vitamins and minerals they need. If they need a little boost, we just go to the store and buy a bottle of vitamins without thinking twice.
Unfortunately, one third of all childhood deaths are caused by under nutrition and that an estimated 190 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency worldwide. A simple, cost-effective vitamin A capsule each six months can prevent blindness and reduce under-five mortality by 23 percent.
Whole Foods Market’s current podcast shares the story of Vitamin Angels, an organization that is profoundly changing the life’s of children around the world by connecting children under five with vital nutrients they need to survive and thrive.
To raise awareness of Vitamin Angels, Whole Foods Market will donate $1 for each comment in response to the Viva Vitamin Angels podcast in September. http://blog.wholefoodsmarket.com/2011/08/viva-vitamin-angels-2/
