A third of the world
is starving. Every day 16,000 children die through
hunger. It's often not just a simple lack of food.
Many children who battle against hunger have to deal
with chronic under-nourishment and vitamin and
mineral starvation, sometimes leading to blindness.
Experts believe improving food by adding vitamins
and minerals is one of the most successful ways of
fighting the effects of hunger and starvation. But
does it work? We are what we eat takes Margary,
mother of five, and shows how fighting hunger is a
day to day struggle, and how without those vital
nutrients, her children's lives are at risk.
Part of a 28 x 25-minute documentary series produced
for the BBC. These films can be bought individually
or as a series. |
