The National Nutrition Council at the National Capital Region (NNC-NCR) promotes the 10 Kumainments in stations along EDSA of the Mass Rapid Transit – Line 3 or most commonly known as MRT.

The 10 Kumainments are the popularized version of the Nutritional Guidelines for Filipinos (NGF). They are simple and easy to remember guidelines that can be easily followed by ordinary citizens to improve their nutritional status. The NNC-NCR, as part of its Local Media Campaign, printed tarpaulin streamers containing one (1) Kumainment per streamer so people can easily read and remember the Kumainment.

To ensure wide dissemination of the 10 Kumainments in Metro Manila, NNC-NCR partnered with the Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) to display the 10 Kumainments tarpaulin streamers in the MRT-Line 3 stations where it can be seen by commuters.

The MRT – Line 3 operates daily from 4:30 in the morning until 10:30 in the evening. Thousands of people every day use the MRT to go to their destination. Displaying the 10 Kumainments streamers in the stations will increase public awareness on the 10 Kumainments and influence them to practice these guidelines for good nutrition.

The 10 Kumainments tarpaulin streamers can be seen in the ten MRT stations: North Avenue, Quezon Avenue, Araneta-Cubao, Ortigas, Shaw Boulevard, Guadalupe, Buendia, Ayala, Magallanes and EDSA-Taft.
