March – Nutrition Month to stay healthy

The word nutrition means providing materials in the form of food to the cells and organisms within the body to sustain a healthy life. It is also known as nourishment, and can prevent us from having health problems. Every year, the month of March is celebrated as National nutrition Month and it is mainly for nutrition education and information to stay healthy. This campaign is organized by the American Dietetic Association.
