We have been eradicating childhood diseases and malnutrition in this village for many years. About 4 months ago, we came upon a product called Chispuditos which is making a remarkable difference in the children using it. Chispuditos has 21 vitamins and minerals and tastes like atole de alote or a corn tasting oatmeal like drink, made from corn and soy. This gives 100% of the vitamins and minerals children need to grow and stay healthy, which most are missing in their daily diets. That is why we see so many children underweight, under height, and struggle with school. Chispuditos is distinguished by its precise and balanced formula of micronutrients, carefully selected in the right amounts. This premix ensures that children receive the essential nutrients needed to optimize their nutritional status and health. It only requires 1 teaspoon a day to be mixed with water or milk.
Chispuditos has a higher proportion of ZINC than other products on the market. ZINC is needed for cell division that occurs when a child is growing. Chispuditos also contains calcium, vitamin D and phosphorus, which are necessary for bone development. Chispuditos has a higher proportion of IRON than other products on the market. Iron is vital for neural connection. It influences intelligence, learning capacity and memory use. The iodine contained in Chispuditos is also vital for brain development.
Three micronutrients in Chispuditos contribute to strengthening the defense system:
Vitamin A: contributes to the first defense system, when it comes into contact with a pathogen.
Vitamin C: stimulates the activity of the cells that defend us from pathogens.
ZINC: stimulates the division of cells that fight against any pathogen.
The children visit our clinic once a month to be evaluated or our staff goes to their home to make the evaluation. Each month their height, weight, and vitals are taken and logged. For the children in this program that take the recommended daily dose of 1 teaspoon, we have seen a remarkable difference in their overall health. This program and product are helping us to save and change lives daily. It is beautiful to see the results of the health of a child.
We need your support. Please consider setting up an automatic monthly donation of at least $20 or more to help us maintain this vital program. Our staff goes out weekly, searching for more children we can help in new communities. Your support would greatly be appreciated! Just visit our donation link on the top of our homepage.
