Harmonizing health & biodiversity, our melodic food for health rhymes initiative can ignite kids’ love for diverse foods in a fun, engaging way.

Agathi Leaves — A Nutritional Symphony!

Srinivasa K. Rao, Ph.D.

Recognizing that children’s limited diet impacts both their health and the planet’s biodiversity, we propose to foster a love for diverse foods through the universal language of music. We created nursery rhymes, each featuring a different food item, set to familiar tunes. We hope these rhymes will not only educate children about the nutritional benefits of various foods but also stimulate demand for diverse crops, ultimately contributing to biodiversity.

This initiative promises a fun, engaging way to cultivate healthier habits in children while safeguarding our planet.

Agathi Leaves: A Nutritional Symphony Tune “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”

🎵 **Agathi Leaves**, fresh and green,
Rich in calcium, a health routine.
Packed with vitamins A and C,
Boosting immunity, as can be.

🎵 Eating them, it’s good for the heart,
A source of iron, that’s just the start.
High in fiber, aiding digestion,
A natural choice for health progression.
