2018 NUTRITION MONTH Theme: Ugaliing Magtanim, Sapat na Nutrition Aanihin!


Well, month of July is a month of nutrition. Every year, we always celebrate it even in elementary pupils and high school students. We formally celebrate it for many years with such activities like nutri quiz, food fest, nutri jingle, cook fest, mural painting, poster making, logo making, dish gardening and many more.

Healthy diet according to World Health Organization (WHO) helps protect against malnutrition in all its forms, as well as non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and cancer.

It means that healthy diet plays an important role in securing that we are free of any diseases and it also implies that observing a healthy diet will avoid us from malnutrition which is very common in some part of the world. It is important to take care of our health in order for us to maximize our skills and talents. Taking care of our health starts by creating a healthy diet plan and proper mind set. It all starts with making goals about having a healthy lifestyle and sticking to it.

There are now different types of diseases that are present everywhere and can easily catch by our bodies. We can protect ourselves from getting diseases by simply starting a healthier way of living which means equipping ourselves about the importance of eating right foods and avoiding those junk foods. Each of us is guilty of eating unhealthy foods, starting right now we should learn to control and choose wisely those foods we intake for our own sake. In the long run, we will be the one who will be benefited from eating healthy foods and choosing a healthy diet. Some of the healthiest food are apples, avocados, bananas, blueberries, oranges, strawberries or in general eating fruits and vegetables. Some really have a big problem when it comes to feeding themselves with vegetables like eggplant, okra, and ampalaya, these are some of the most nutritious vegetables available almost in every market. Make sure to eat clean foods which mean those veggies and fruits that are fresh and organic because fresh fruits and vegetables have more nutrients compared to those that are not organically cultivated and staled. 

            Healthy diet is not all about eating healthy foods but also about accompanying it with exercises. To achieve a perfect body and healthy mind we must also do some exercises like going regularly to the gym. Achieving a healthy body should not be expensive so if one can't afford a gym membership there's a lot of ways to stay in shape. We can simply exercise at the comfort of our homes like dancing, aerobics, zumba and even brisk walking and jogging outside. If school or offices is just a few blocks away from your home then its better to just walk aside from burning fats it is also economic. Being healthy is not hard today since there are alot of videos or tutorials available online which we can use and helpful like DIY gym equipments and using things that are available at home.There are also working out plans we can find to fitness sites and blogs. Not exercising is no longer an excuse since resources are almost in just a click.

        Creating a healthy diet plan is useless without sticking to it. The hardest part about being a healthy person is sticking to what is planned. We are good in making an ideal plan but its hard to stick to it making it as a habit. The key to a healthy lifestyle is a healthy mindset and clear achievable goals.

Good nutrition is our first defence against disease and our source of energy to live and be active. Nutritional problems caused by an inadequate diet can be of many sorts, and when they affect a generation of youngsters, they can lower their learning capacities, thus compromising their futures, perpetuating a generational cycle of poverty and malnutrition, with severe consequences on both individuals and nations. While young children are the most vulnerable to malnutrition, the right to adequate food is universal and good nutrition is essential for all. Problems of malnutrition –undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies and obesity – exist in all countries and cut across socio-economic classes.

Emerging challenges, such as climate change, environmental sustainability and rapid technological shifts, are transforming food systems and raising questions about how to feed a growing world population in sustainable ways.
At the same time, uneven economic growth, social and economic transformations and other factors are shaping food systems and diets. As a result, the prevalence of overweight, obesity and related non-communicable diseases are increasing while under nutrition and micronutrient deficiencies persist.

As the theme says FARMING IS THE WAY TO HARVEST GOOD NUTRITION. It says that we should plant vegetables and fruits for a good nutrition. It also tells that we should be more often eat healthy foods than the canned goods or processed foods that wold often caused diseases like cancer, diabetes, kidney failure, liver failure and others. So plant a exact nutrition with your heart for more crops, So that we can eat more nutrition foods and we can also save our earth to plant a trees to prevent flood in certain area. You must better to plant with care to get a great nutrition foods so that we can eat also clean and neat nutritional foods.
