Access to clean and safe food is essential to prevent foodborne illnesses and ensure food security 🌽 The Feed the Future Bangladesh Nutrition Activity is addressing food safety threats by focusing on local food markets and household practices. The local food markets lack the infrastructure required to maintain hygiene standards. Additionally, a lack of food safety education and awareness contributes to food contamination, especially in areas where clean water is not readily available. By employing an integrated market systems approach and utilising various social and behavioural change strategies, the Activity is dedicated to creating healthier environments and providing resources to those in Bangladesh who need them the most.

Children under 5 make up 9 percent of the population, but bear 40 percent of the foodborne disease burden, being at a higher risk of malnutrition and mortality due to unsafe food. Fortifying staple foods is one solution among many to deliver healthy diets and is one of the most accepted, scientifically proven and cost-effective ways to tackle malnutrition on a large scale. On World Food Safety Day, Millers for Nutrition pledges to support millers, who are food business operators, in following good hygiene practices to prevent food safety incidents. By prioritizing food safety measures, we can avoid foodborne illnesses and ensure every meal nourishes and sustains the lives of children and communities. #WorldFoodSafetyDay #MillersForNutrition #FoodSafety #Nutrition

Did you know that food safety, nutrition, and food security are closely connected? An estimated 600 million people—almost 1 in 10 worldwide—become ill each year from contaminated food. Sadly, 420,000 lives are lost annually due to foodborne illnesses, leading to a loss of 33 million healthy life years (DALYs). Let’s work together to ensure safe and nutritious food for everyone by following good hygiene practices! #WorldFoodSafetyDay2024 #SupportSanku #EndMalnutrition #EndHiddenHunger #SDG2 World Health Organization

The rains are here and it has blessed us with a lot fruits and greeny leafy vegetables. The fruit stealing the show this season is #mango. Mangoes are packed with nutrients like vitamins A, C, and E, as well as potassium and fiber. The new normal is eating mango without a thorough wash because we believe the rain is doing it's job. 🛑🛑 Eating mango without a thorough wash is unhygienic and can lead to pesticide exposure, food poisoning, diarrhoea and many others. To prevent sickness from enjoying mango, it's essential to wash them thoroughly under running water or with salt water before cutting or eating them, even if you plan to peel them. This helps remove dirt, bacteria, and any pesticide residues on the surface. Proper hygiene and food safety practices are crucial for enjoying the nutritional benefits of mangoes without risking illness. Follow me Josephine Asiedu for more nutrition things and facts🤗

Cooking is an art and not everyone is gifted with it but everyone has the potential to learn it. However, cooking doesn´t kill all bacteria, proper food handling does. At Phillips HMO, we do everything possible to make sure that food safety is always paramount, and that we work with the industry as aggressively as we can to make sure that we're paying attention to food-safety issues. Happy International Chefs Day, and remember, with the Phillips HMO Food Handlers Test, you can avoid the transmission of any harmful pathogenic organisms that may be spread through food. Healthy food consumption? Let's dig in!!! #food #healthyeating #nutrition
