AvniSep 17 2021

The World Health Organization defines health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity’; and nutrition as an input to and foundation for health and development

A healthy body is a healthy adage that has stood the test of time. Nutrition is the most important factor in maintaining and keeping good health Nutrition begins with food and includes everything that the body needs in order to live i.e. function and grow. Food that one eats regularly constitutes our diet. Dietary habits are habitual decisions an individual or culture makes. Although humans are omnivores, each culture holds some food preferences and some food taboos. Individual dietary choices may be more or less healthy. The choice of food may also vary according to an individual’s genetic makeup, environment and health. For a significant section of the population, lack of food and malnutrition are the main impediments to healthy eating. Conversely, amongst the affluent, obesity is a larger concern.
