The following is the story of Lidia, a mother of four in Tanzania, who believes proper nutrition will lead her children toward successful futures. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>We stood quietly, surrounded by cows, manure and flies, until Lidia stepped outside of her home and invited us indoors. She apologized for the delay \u2013 women in her community have many chores that keep them on a tight schedule every day, so even a brief visit made a notable hiccup in her regimen.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping this in mind, we expressed our gratitude for her grace and willingness to give a pocket of her time to us. She smiled in return as she bounced her baby on her lap, a small fire crackling in the divide between us. As flames cradled a pot of food, smoke billowed out of a small hole in the side of Lidia\u2019s home. Her visage was illuminated by the limited light from the hole and the flickering ribbons of orange and yellow.<\/p>\n<p>At 35 years old, motherhood is a familiar friend to Lidia. Her oldest child, Baraka, is 10 years old; his siblings are 7, 5 \u00bd and 2 years old. Raising four young children is enough to keep Lidia busy, but is only one of the many duties she manages on a daily basis. Given how many of her hours are devoted to running her household, Lidia is grateful for both the direct and indirect benefits provided by vitamins.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"819\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-1.jpg?fit=852%2C570&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"852,570\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-1.jpg?fit=300%2C201&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-1.jpg?fit=740%2C495&amp;ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\" wp-image-819 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/c34193.sgvps.net\/~mauricez\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-2.jpg?resize=598%2C400\" alt=\"tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1\" width=\"598\" height=\"400\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"819\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-1.jpg?fit=852%2C570&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"852,570\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1\" data-image-description data-image-caption data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-1.jpg?fit=300%2C201&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-1.jpg?fit=740%2C495&amp;ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\" wp-image-819 aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20598%20400%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1\" width=\"598\" height=\"400\" data-src=\"http:\/\/c34193.sgvps.net\/~mauricez\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/tz16-4078_852_570_s_c1-2.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">photo credit: \u00a9 Matt Dayka\/Vitamin Angels TZ16<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/vitamin-angels-bracelet-1-bracelet-s\/xy-0289\">Donate $5<\/a> and you&#8217;ll receive a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/vitamin-angels-bracelet-1-bracelet-s\/xy-0289\">handmade bracelet<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I started taking this medicine, my two babies were more active. [Now] when it\u2019s time for them to sleep, they sleep nicely until I finish my chores at home,\u201d she shared.
