Here's a story about how members of the Changemakers community are using a peanut butter solution to prevent malnutrition in Haiti:
In the United States, the thought of peanut butter conjures images of lunchtime sandwiches, midday snacks, and the occasional sweet treat, but for children in underserved populations around the world, peanut butter means survival.
In Haiti, a super-fortified peanut butter called Medika Mamba, or “peanut butter medicine” in Haitian Creole, is helping severely malnourished children restore their health within three to five days.
