Hi! I'm Mma Orizu
The Mumtritionist Africa (TMA)
(Medical Biochemist, Maternal & Child Nutrition Specialist, MPH)
Founder of Africa's Maternal & Child Nutrition Hub

I have spent 12+ years watching Nigerian mothers abandon the most nutritionally complete foods on earth. Our sweet potato purée enriched with Ugu and crayfish. Our ripe plantain purée enriched with liver and spinach. Our mashed jollof rice. Our pap made with millet, guinea corn, soybeans, tigernuts and dates. All of it — traded for imported alternatives never designed for our children's bodies.

God designed foods specifically for human flourishing. The African plate is the fulfilment of that promise. My mission is to bring mothers back to it — one family at a time.

"Every grain, every fruit, every seed is a prescription from the Creator."

"I was struggling with low milk supply three weeks postpartum and almost switched to formula entirely. The Mumtritionist placed me on a meal plan and within ten days my supply had completely transformed. I am now exclusively breastfeeding my son at four months."
