Other Interests/Hobbies
Aside the academic interests, another aspect of my life that is highly impactful, is my engagement in nutritional enhancement of the less privileged. I have been doing this for over three decades but the climax was during the COVID 19, lock- down. This is done through visiting institutions for the less privileged, the homeless, churches, and individual homes. In fact, a food bank has been set up in a religious setting where about 500 families are attended to monthly/ bimonthly, depending on financial capability. Good nutrition improves immunity, reduces risk for diseases, improves well-being and productivity. Collaborators are needed for research and funding the project.
Another area of life that gives me joy is worshipping God and serving in various church activities.
So I enjoy singing, praising, dancing, reading , religious books and praying.
Also, watch news on television.
