Iloilo PHO Nutrition: Municipal Nutrition Committee Reactivation in San Dionisio, Iloilo
September 23, 2025

The Iloilo Provincial Health Office (PHO) Nutrition Program, through the leadership of Ms. Leni C. Disin, NDIII, together with Ms. Ma. Dolores Gayatgay, NDI and Mr. Gerard Guillen, NDI,
provided technical support to the Municipality of San Dionisio for the reactivation of its Municipal Nutrition Committee (MNC).
This activity underscores the importance of having a functional and responsive MNC as the backbone of nutrition action at the local level.

In San Dionisio, Municipal Nutrition Action Officer (MNAO) Dr. Regine Viel Manderico and Municipal Nutrition Coordinator Ms. MaryFlor Trespeces, with the full participation of MNC members, came together
with one purpose, to renew their dedication to address malnutrition and ensure that every child in San Dionisio is given the chance to grow healthy and strong.

The reactivation of the MNC is not just a formality but a call to action.
It is a recognition that behind every statistic of malnutrition is a child with dreams, a mother with hopes, and a community that deserves a healthier future.
A functional MNC serves as the heart of coordinated efforts, weaving together the commitment of the LGU, barangay leaders, health workers, educators, and partners to fight malnutrition and food insecurity.

This reactivation symbolizes unity and shared responsibility, because improving nutrition is not the task of one, but the mission of many.
With renewed energy, San Dionisio is now ready to move forward, embracing the vision of a community where no child is left behind.

โ€œAlone we can do so little, but together we can do so much"

Helen Keller

" With one heart and one mission, let us work hand in hand for the brighter future of our children.โ€

Salt Monitoring Activity in Carles Public Market
September 24, 2025
Carles, Iloilo

The Provincial Nutrition Committee (PNC) and the Provincial Health Office, Iloilo Nutrition Program, together with MNAO Mr. Paulo Bacinillo and MNC Ms. Florilyn Mahilum, conducted a Salt Monitoring and Testing Activity at the Carles Public Market.

This activity aimed to ensure compliance with RA 8172 (ASIN Law) mandating the use of iodized salt.
The team also promoted the Sangkap Pinoy Seal (RA 8976) to market vendors, raising awareness on the importance of fortified food products and the critical role of iodine in salt for preventing iodine deficiency disorders.

Findings showed that the iodine content of salt being sold in the market is very low (only negative 3.8 ppm) using WYD machine.
This emphasizes the urgent need to regulate the entry of non-iodized salt in the market by strengthening the Bantay Asin Task Force in the municipality.

Through stronger monitoring, vendor education, and community awareness, we can work together to ensure that only iodized, safe, and fortified salt reaches households, protecting the health and nutrition of the people of Carles.

By tying grant releases to performance, the PBG promotes accountability and transparency in the use of funds, ensuring that LGUs prioritize nutrition interventions and manage resources effectively. The grant aims to improve nutrition-specific services, such as antenatal care, skilled birth deliveries, and integrated management of childhood illnesses, ultimately reducing stunting and malnutrition rates among children. By providing financial incentives for achieving specific targets, the PBG motivates LGUs to implement high-impact interventions, driving positive change in maternal and child health, nutrition practices, and overall well-being.

The Municipal Nutrition Committee (MNC) of Carles, in partnership with the Provincial Health Office (PHO) - Iloilo Nutrition Service, successfully conducted an orientation on Operation Timbang Plus (OPT Plus) for Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS) on March 20, 2025.
