Thanks for sharing Dr! If you're a lady here, this is just a quick reminder to use this opportunity to examine your breasts too! If you bump a lump, jump into action by calling/visiting a clinic for further examination. Early detection is the best protection

"And who told you your own next meal is guaranteed?"...nothing's more apt tbh! Go to LUTH and you'll see the reality of that song from primary school; "some have food but cannot eat". Nobody will teach you humility.

Tope was the only girl in the midst of the 51 children we trained, she's incredibly smart but has lived a horrible experience trying to survive on her own out here.
She now lives with one of our volunteers and will be enrolled in a school next year.

I'm a Registered Dietitian. I can't "give you meal plan" just because I am one. I assess, diagnose, intervene, monitor, and evaluate!
My job actually roots deep into the intricacies of nutrition. Textbooks, handbooks, papers, etc. are my go-to buddies, not Google.
Quite proud☺️

There are four main domains of practice for Dietitians.
— Clinical
— Food Service Management
— Community
— Research
Yes! Not all Dietitians work in a clinical/hospital setting.

Hey tweeps! So, have you ever wondered if Bullion Cubes (BC) and Seasoning powders (SP) cause CANCER?????? The answer is hidden (or exposed) in this

First, the main ingredients in both BC and SP are:
Salt
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)
Spices

See someone bleeding profusely? you don't need to be a medic to "save them", I promise.
Calmy trace bleeding to the origin of the wound. DO NOT remove anything in/on the wound. Hold/press firmly against the wound with a cloth. Keep talking to the person till help comes

Dear Dr/Nurse, YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TOO!🔔🔔
Take care of your body!
PPEs are not even as essential as your nutritional status.
Eat fruits. Drink water. Toss that coke! Drink Yogurt instead it will help your gut which houses 70% of your immune system cells.

Amala is premium Nigerian swallow made from cassava (plant-based).
and FYI, Amala can sit comfortably on a healthy plate. Yes, it can pass for healthy food. What matters;
✅Quantity you eat at a sitting
✅Type of soup you eat it with
✅Amount/choice of obstacles in the soup
