Female genital mutilation (FGM) , also known as female circumcision, is the practice of partially or completely removing the external female reproductive organ for non-medical reasons. It is common in countries in Africa and the Middle East but is also found in other parts of the world. Many international organizations condemn female circumcision because it causes a lot of health risks and it violates human rights.  The effects on physical, reproductive, sexual, and mental health are particularly severe for women undergoing this procedure without proper medical care and support. It can lead to urinary problems and even death in the worst cases. Besides these physical injuries, psychological trauma such as depression can occur when such procedures are performed without consent or when the risks involved are not understood.  Female genital mutilation (FGM) poses physical, reproductive, sexual, and mental health risks ranging from pain, infections, anxiety, depression, and infer...

  The effects of improper nutrition and physical activity on children can be far-reaching. One of the most common issues is overweight or obesity, which can lead to a host of health problems in adulthood such as heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, certain types of cancer, and more. Poor eating habits combined with little physical activity can also cause deficiencies in essential vitamins and minerals which may result in weakened bones, anemia, or other nutrient deficiencies that could have long-term consequences if not treated promptly.

Parents and caregivers need to recognize that these unhealthy habits often start early on in life, so it’s best to instill healthy practices from an early age so kids grow up feeling their best, as proper nutri...

What is the term food jag? Food jags refer to the practice of eating just one food over time. Another name for food jag is food refusal or aversion. Food jag can also be referred to as when a child decides to limit his/herself to some set of preferred food. Healthy living involves consuming a wide variety of nutritious food in the right amount. Children that are picky in nature tend to develop the habit of consuming a particular food item every day and that can result to lacking some important nutrients needed for their development. Now, what are the consequences of children having food jags? If a child is addicted to consuming a particular food item for a long time, it can result in malnutrition. The child cannot get all the required nutrient needed by the body in the right proportion from just one food item. And when a child is malnourished, it lowers the immune system of such a child, making such a child vulnerable to disease. Such children might grow up to be junk eaters...
