Healthy rice for healthy lives
Año: 2010
As in many South Asian countries, diabetes
is an important and growing health problem
in Bangladesh. To a large degree, this development is driven by people’s unhealthy diets. The food and agriculture sectors, in collaboration with the health sector, have thus an important role to play in preventing diabetes. Promoting rice varieties that are less likely to cause this disease could be a promising strategy.
