"Lucky Iron Fish" changes the lives of 3.5 million people

Did you know that 3.5 billion people in the world are affected by iron deficiency? Above all, children and women in developing countries are victims of this anemia.

Dr. Christopher Charles and his team have discovered a revolutionary solution to this problem in Cambodia. Half of the population in this country is affected by iron deficiency.

Only a few years ago, the physical and mental growth of children in Cambodia was not very pronounced.

The project of Dr. Charles have the name "Lucky Iron Fish" and this is how it works...

The iron fish is cooked in a cooking vessel with a few drops of lemon. The taste of the food is not changed by the Iron Fish.

Today the people of this region use the Lucky Iron Fish every day.

After only 9 months, a reduction of 50% was seen in cases of anemia.

Over 2,500 Cambodian families use the Iron Fish every day. Amazing, right?
