SAVE LIFE FROM HIDDEN HUNGER
Vitamin A deficiency is the leading cause of preventable blindness in children and increases the risk of disease and death from severe infections. In pregnant women it can cause night blindness and may increase the risk of maternal mortality (the death of women during pregnancy or within 42 days of giving birth). An estimated 250 million worldwide are vitamin A deficient. An estimated 250,000–500,000 vitamin A deficient children become blind every year, with half of these children dying within 12 months of losing their sight because their deficiency is so severe. Scientists have therefore developed, using GM technology, a type of rice, labelled Golden Rice, which provides more dietary vitamin A. The first Golden Rice was developed in 1999 using philanthropic funding. Golden Rice provides a solution to vitamin A deficiency rather than addressing the underlying causes of poverty and poor diets.
