When we adopted Dinara and Noah, they came to us malnourished. The orphanages in Kazakhstan are very good compared to many places in the world, but there is no denying that children do not get exposed to the micronutrients, vitamins and minerals they need to grow healthy and strong.
There is so much we can’t do for the children we left behind in Kazakhstan, yet there are things we can do to help those left behind. One way is to help these children get the micronutrients they need. Supplementation is one of the most cost effective things we can do to help level the playing field for children who do not have families. Making sure they have enough iodine, Vitamin A, D, Calcium and Iron.
John and I are both active in Spoon Foundation. What we both love about Spoon is the fact that Spoon is working on studies to establish new feeding and supplementation protocols that will be supported by governments. They aren’t just proving the supplements but rather working to provide the framework to get the governments to provide the supplements.
