Agribusiness: Cassava flakes as nutritious food for Children.

In Nigeria, 37 per cent of children, or 6 million children, are stunted (chronically malnourished or low height for age), more than half of them severely.

In addition, 18 percent of children suffer from wasting (acutely malnourished or low weight for height), half of them severely.

Twenty-nine per cent of children are underweight (both acutely and chronically malnourished or low weight for age), almost half of them severely. (UNICEF.)

  Provision of nutritious foods along side food fortification has been advocated to stop malnutrition in children.

Vitamin A foods have been used to help the children with various food types such as the orange fleshed sweet potato and yellow garri.

Cassava: benefits of cassava flakes as a fermented food.

Cassava: benefits of garri as a fermented food. Cassava processing involves fermentation which is a plus for gut health. The fermentation process removes the cyanogenic glucosides present in the fresh cassava. This method of processing is also a method of preservation.

 Cassava undergoes various processing types to yield different products. Fermentation is an important component of the production and has health benefits and implications. Fermentation of cassava is usually of 2 types, the solid state fermentation and the submerged fermentation. The solid state fermentation used by garri producers, uses grated/sliced cassava pieces that are allowed to ferment while pressed in a bag in a natural environment. 

 The submerged fermentation involves the soaking of the whole peeled cassava in water for various periods and this is used by lafun and fufu producers. 

Cassava is fermented for 4-6 days to allow for maximum detoxification. Cassava: benefits of garri as a fermented food. 
 1) Fermentation causes release of some bound minerals such as calcium and magnesium. 2)Fermentation improves the digestibility of the food as its already pre-digested by the bacteria during fermentation. 3) Fermented foods are loaded with probiotics which helps to ensure good bacteria proliferation in the gut. 4) Fermented foods help curb sugar cravings, by regulating your microbiome and helping your taste buds to adapt to bitter/sour taste. 5)Fermented foods boost your immune system.
