Promoting Non-Animal Protein Sources in Sub-Saharan Africa : An Interdisciplinary Study Hardback
Edited by Frank Olwari, Sunday Paul Bako
Part of the Studies in Sub-Saharan Africa series
Hardback
Description
The research results point to the need of sustaining plant protein sources to large populations in sub-Saharan Africa that have no access to meat.
Proteins are essential components of the human body and therefore indispensable for human life.
Malnutrition and diseases are often caused because of the lack of sufficient proteins.
Since animal sources of protein are out of reach to more than 85% of the people of sub-Saharan Africa, the challenge is to make protein otherwise accessible, available and affordable to the ordinary man.
Owing to the influence of climate change and population explosion, the situation at discussion will exacerbate within the coming decade.
Therefore non-animal protein must be brought into focus in order to prevent major diseases of malnutrition.
