Professor Lora Iannotti and E3 Nutrition Lab colleagues are working to tackle “hidden hunger,” a form of malnutrition that affects millions of children worldwide, by studying the impact of nutrient-rich, locally sourced foods like eggs and vegetables. The Lab’s findings highlight the power of simple dietary changes in combating malnutrition, particularly in resource-limited settings. Their work emphasizes the importance of sustainable, culturally appropriate solutions to improve global health outcomes. Their research in Ecuador led to changes in national nutrition guidelines and has the potential to benefit millions globally.
