I had the best experience as an intern at the Dietetics Department at Queen’s Hospital BHRUT NHS 🏥 (2023). I got to understand the role of a nutritionist in public health, peaking my interest in kidney and liver diseases. Lucky to have Prof Gideon Mlawa as my Mentor. #nutritionist

👏 Big win at #WHA78! Countries adopted new rules to curb digital marketing of formula & baby foods—closing Code gaps & boosting influencer transparency. This will reduce false ads & help parents make informed, healthier choices—an area I’m passionate about. 🌍👶 #ChildNutrition
