[Muan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Muan-gun is recruiting new participants for the 2022 Nutrition Plus Project, which supports healthy eating habits for pregnant women and infants, throughout the year.


Applicants must be households with an income below 80% of the median income, residing in the area, and include pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, or infants under 6 years old.


Selected participants will receive customized supplementary foods containing 12 types of nutrients twice a month (formulated milk, rice, brown rice, potatoes, carrots, eggs, seaweed, sterilized milk, black beans, canned chicken breast, orange juice).


Additionally, a health management program including one-on-one counseling and nutrition assessment is provided to help participants develop the ability to manage their own dietary habits.


Applications are primarily accepted in person, but to prevent the spread of COVID-19, non-face-to-face methods such as phone applications are also available.


For more details regarding the Nutrition Plus Project, please contact the Integrated Health Promotion Office at the Muan-gun Public Health Center.


Ahn Jin-hwa, Director of Health Promotion, stated, “We will strive to help more eligible participants receive the service and work harder to resolve nutritional imbalance issues such as anemia and underweight.”
