Nutricima Yo Yogurt invites Lagosians to walk for health

Lagos, Nigeria; August 31,2012: Dairy and beverages marketer Nutricima Limited has invited Lagosians to participate in a health walk aimed at promoting wellness as it hosts the Walk for Digestive Health exercise on Saturday, September 1, 2012.

The walk takes off at Maryland and would go on to Ikeja bus stop and return to Maryland.

Nutricima officials say the Walk for Digestive Health is part of the activities marking the launch of Yo Classic Yoghurt in the Nigerian market. Yo Classic Yoghurt was launched in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt in August with endorsements from the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control as well as the Nutrition Society of Nigeria.

The walk is part of the Yo Community Service initiative on digestive health and is one of several activities planned to last over a 90-day period across Lagos State. The activity involves fitness walk and the deployment of professional medical practitioners to all nooks and crannies of the state to educate people on healthy consumption and lifestyles while also rendering free medical services to all who desire, particularly the indigent.

The Yo Community Service Initiative on Digestive Health is slated for about a dozen locations in Lagos State between now and November 2012.
