    Nourishing Bangladesh with micronutrient-rich small fish

    Thumbnail
    Abstract
    • Increasing the quantity and frequency of small fish consumption can boost nutrition, health and well-being of the people of Bangladesh. Small fish are rich in micronutrients, particularly vitamin A, iron, zinc and calcium, as well as animal protein and essential fats. Small fish are highly nutritious as they are usually consumed whole. Pregnant and lactating women and young children from the age of 6 months to two years should consume small fish as they promote healthy growth and development in children and can lead to better performance at school, and at work later in life. Policies should be formulated and implemented to encourage the consumption of small fish to help Bangladesh become a smart, strong, and healthy nation.
