“Meat, eggs and milk provide a range of important macro-nutrients such as protein, fats and carbohydrates and micro-nutrients that are difficult to obtain from plant based foods in the required quality and quantity,” the report noted. “Globally, more than 1 in 2 preschool aged children and 1.2 billion women of child-bearing age suffer from the lack of at least one of three micronutrients: iron, vitamin A or zinc. Three quarters of these children live in South and East Asia, the Pacific and sub-Saharan Africa.”
