Agroecology grows food with healthy soil, not harmful chemicals. As Young people, its want we need for our growing bodies.

Young people we are falling sick in ways that worry us. Let's ask honestly what has changed in how our food is grown.

Almost everything else we depend on comes from outside Africa. Let's not let our seed go the same way.

When a few companies own seed, they own the our livelihood. That's not access. That's captivity.

The people drafting our seed laws mostly aren't young and aren't farmers. We'll live under those laws for decades. Let's talk.

Nearly 1 in 4 packaged foods in Uganda contain ingredients linked to industrial trans fats. Every parent should back a legal limit of 2grams per 100grams this World Heart Day.

Mandatory trans fat labelling would give Ugandan shoppers the right to know and regulators the power to check all 465 labelled products and more.

Adult outpatient heartcare runs UGX 8-12 million a year in Uganda before surgery Removing industrial transfat prevents some of the bill

A law without enforcement is paper Uganda's industrial trans fat rule must come with inspections, lab tests and penalties from day 1

Most health tips ask individuals to change. On industrially Produced trans-fats, WHO has guided Governments to ban PHOs and limit iTFAs to 2%

Taxes on imported foods with industrial trans fat markers raised UGX 56 billion last year, less than the Uganda Heart Institute's budget. That doesn't add up.

A fact for your family WhatsApp group: 23.7% of packaged foods in Uganda show markers of industrial trans fats and all these end in our blood streams.

Spare a thought today for the 25.4% of Ugandan adults living with high blood pressure. They need food free of industrial trans fats.

A healthy heartbeat shouldn't depend on tiny print. Yet 86.7% of labels in Uganda never mention industrial trans fats. Honest labelling must be enforced by law.
