At Federal Institute of Industrial Research, Oshodi, I contributed to research and development for 9 food products. I independently developed a protein-rich soy-groundnut spread by calculating ingredient proportions and testing different formulations.

At Lagos University Teaching Hospital, I assisted with planning and preparing diabetic, hypertensive, and liquid diets, and provided nutrition counseling and assessment under supervision.

At Subol Hospital, I led a free blood glucose test for World Diabetes Day, recording results and providing brief counseling. I also measured patients’ height and weight and calculated Body Mass Index.

For my undergraduate research project at Federal University of Health Sciences, Ila-Orangun, I independently studied the cost of daily dietary intake among undergraduates in Osun State, surveying 316 students.
