Athletics Kenya Introduces Nutrition Equity Kits for Low-Income Athletes

To bridge dietary gaps, Athletics Kenya launched Nutrition Equity Kits on October 15, 2025—monthly parcels of fortified flour, beans, amaranth, and camel milk powder for 5,000 low-income athletes. Medals aren’t made in labs—they’re grown in kitchens, said nutritionist Dr. Wambui Kariuki. Early results: 59% improvement in hemoglobin levels. Equity Bank funds logistics. All national youth camps now prioritize kit recipients.
