BaroSolutions Weight Loss is committed to a culture of giving back through action.? said Simone Sacks, Chief Executive Officer of BaroSolutions. ?We?re proud to partner with a great organization like Vitamin Angels to help children in need.?

Focusing on the underserved and those without access to facility-based health services, Vitamin Angels connects infants and children with vitamin A. In addition, Operation 20/20 often combines vitamin A with anti-parasitic treatments that eliminate the presence of intestinal worms that contribute to poor absorption of vitamin A. This ensures that at-risk children obtain sufficient vitamin A, decreasing the effects of VAD and advancing child immune function and survival.
