Doctor speaks on use of Malt and Milk for blood replenishment

Nigerian Doctor, Chinonso Egemba popularly known as ‘ Aproko Doctor ‘ has disclosed that the use of Malt and Milk has nothing to do with the replacement of blood already lost in the body system.

He made this known through his official Twitter page while dishing out food substances and supplements that helps in the replenishment of blood. He explained that the body system needed elements like Iron, Vitamin B and Folic acid.

In summary, he said: “ This tradition (use of Malt and Milk) started because people collected it after blood donation in so many cases. Why? When you donate blood, energy is lost. That combination was probably someone’s idea to restore energy and not blood. Tomato paste is the worst, just plain deceit. Just because it is red does not automatically make it produce blood. Do not waste your money”.
