Power the Potential of Teenagers
Adolescence is a critical stage of rapid physical growth, brain development, and increased nutritional demand. Nutri-Win Cereal provides science-based, plant-powered nourishment designed to support teenagers with the protein, iron, calcium, and energy they need to thrive academically, socially, and physically.
Why Nutrition Matters at This Stage
“In Nigeria, the prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia among adolescent girls ranges from 13.4% to 62.9%. (Nigeria DHS, 2018)”
Adolescence (ages 10 to 19) is the second fastest period of physical growth in the human lifecycle. The body's demand for protein, iron, calcium, and energy surges dramatically. Yet teenagers are among the most nutritionally vulnerable, often skipping meals and choosing poor-quality foods.
For adolescent girls, iron deficiency is a critical health concern. Low iron during teenage years can cause anaemia, impair school performance, and lead to complications during future pregnancies. Nutri-Win Cereal addresses these gaps. It also supports bone density at the critical window before peak bone mass is reached, reducing the risk of osteoporosis in later life.
In Nigeria, the prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) among adolescent girls ranges from 13.4% to 62.9%, with a national survey indicating that 60.5% of teenage girls are anaemic. (Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey, 2018)
