An eight-year-old boy from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia has gone permanently blind due to a poor diet consisting largely of chicken nuggets since infancy. The child’s unhealthy eating habits led to severe deficiencies in essential nutrients, ultimately resulting in irreversible vision loss.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
This tragic case underscores the critical importance of a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients, especially for developing children. As someone deeply involved in the tech and app development sector, I see a potential opportunity for leveraging technology to prevent such cases. Developing an app that educates parents on nutritional guidelines and monitors children’s dietary intake could help avoid future tragedies by ensuring kids receive a well-rounded diet.
