The New York Times reported that the paste is administered in 500 kilocalorie (2.1 MJ) packets, twice daily, for two to four weeks, in combination with Unimix, a vitamin-enriched flour for making porridge, and will reverse malnutrition in severely malnourished children1.

What a mindblowingly low figure. The solution is not with this generation, however. They are already malnurished, trodden down, desensitized, destroyed. We must get to the next generation. It is so incredibly important that they be given enough food to prevent permenent body and brain damage. So also is peace, stability, freedom from major disease, and education. It does not, it should not, require a miracle. It should be easy to do, but it is not. No one does it.
