Miraco Nutripharm is proud to support the Woodlands Evangelical Free Church (EFC) Dec 2022 medical mission trip to Timor-Leste. The mission trip was headed by one of the Church doctors to Maubisse, a rural mountain town.
The objective of the mission trip in December was to treat the children in a kindergarten located in Maubisse as well as their family members. The kindergarten was run by NGO Renovar Foundation, a community centre established by Woodlands EFC in Maubisse.
The locals of Maubisse, a rural town up in the mountains of Timor-Leste, are mostly malnourished & their lifespans are usually short. There is also a lack of clean water & lower standards of hygiene. Being the second mission trip to there, the medical team hopes to continue their efforts in educating the community living in the town about how to better take care of their medical & dental health on top of treating their illnesses.
As a strong believer of improving lives through advancements in healthcare, Miraco Nutripharm is glad to donate 200 bottles of BioDrop™ to the community living in Maubisse.
BioDrop™ - Probiotic drops containing world’s most documented Bifidobacterium probiotic, BB-12®. BioDrop™ is suitable for all ages including pre-term infants to elderly. Biodrop™ is administered through a user-friendly hygienic dropper with a neutral taste.
In Maubisse, the lower standards of hygiene could mean that gut-related disorders are common. Biodrop™ helps to maintain healthy digestive flora, enhance immune function as well as help to reduce infant colic. Biodrop™ is used paediatric doctors in Singapore & extensively studied in over 200 human clinical trials. Biodrop™ does not require refrigeration, making storage convenient.
Woodlands EFC medical team provided health screenings for the adults & children living there as well as teaching them about the importance of dental & medical health through educational talks conducted in their local dialects. They also took the time to distribute & demostrate how to take Biodrop™ to the locals in Maubisse.
It was heartening to hear from the Woodlands EFC Mission team that the locals are interacting positively with the medical team & getting their illnesses treated. They also responded well to the educational talks given by the medical team on how to take care of themselves & their health. Miraco Nutripharm is honoured to be part of such a meaningful cause as a way to help communities in need & improve the lives of the less fortunate in Singapore & beyond.
