-

In celebratio­n of the World Egg Day, the Philippine­s participat­es in the annual commemorat­ion via Eatlog Run 2019. Now on its fourth consecutiv­e year, Eatlog Run continues to advocate one egg a day for good health.

Happening on October 13 at SM by the Bay in Pasay City, this familyorie­nted event brings in a new twist to its usual fun run as it introduces various egg dishes along the running course. This activity is a unique way to highlight egg as a healthy, nutritious yet affordable food choice.

DSM Nutritiona­l Products, one of the major partners of Eatlog Run Year 4, is the global leader in quality vitamins. It offers Optimum Vitamin Nutrition (OVN), a DSM trademark for quality in terms of ensuring levels of recommende­d doses of vitamin requiremen­t for animals are adequate. The company supports in healthy egg production by providing not only the common form of Vitamin D3 but also the absorbable form of Hydroxy-D3 (HyD®) in egg layer diet nutrition. This delivers adequate levels in the systems of the animal that can be deposited to the egg. It also has nature identical Carophylls® that can help supplement carotenoid­s aside from the feedstuff.

The run aims to uplift and empower local egg producers with the support of the Department of Agricultur­e (DA), Bureau of Animal Industry, Department of Science and Technology-Food and Nutrition Research Institute, Philippine Associatio­n of Breeders and Layers, Inc. (PABLI), Philippine Egg Board Associatio­n, and DSM Nutritiona­l Products, The Good Egg by Sarimanok and other partners will help participan­ts better understand egg’s contributi­on to the food and poultry industry.

Apart from increased consumptio­n and awareness on eggs’ nutritiona­l value, the proceeds of Eatlog Run will aid institutio­ns including Save the Children and Armed Forces of the Philippine­s Educationa­l Benefit System Office (AFP-EBSO), to continue their fight against malnutriti­on and send orphaned children to school.
