Dakshta Sashaktikaran evam shodh sansthaan conducted programmes on nutritious laddoo (Paushtik Laddoo) among rural women in Udaipur District
Dakshta Sansthaan, a non-governmental organization, has initiated a program in Udaipur district aimed at improving the health of rural women through the distribution and promotion of 'paushtik laddoos'—nutritious sweet balls made from locally sourced ingredients. This initiative focuses on addressing malnutrition and enhancing overall well-being among women in these communities.
The program includes workshops where women areeducated on the importance of nutrition and trained to prepare paushtik laddoos themselves. By empowering them with this knowledge, the initiative not only aims to improve their health but also provides an opportunity for women to generate income by selling these nutritious snacks within their communities.
The paushtik laddoos are typically made from ingredients such as sesame seeds, jaggery, peanuts, and various pulses, which are rich in essential nutrients like iron, protein, and vitamins. Regular consumption of these laddoos can help combat common health issues prevalent among rural women, including anemia and general fatigue.
This program by Dakshta Sansthaan exemplifies a sustainable approach to community health, combining nutritional education with economic empowerment to foster long-term well-being among rural women in Udaipur district.
