As we all know, there is a celebration
celebrated in every month of July. And this is the Nutrition Month
Celebration. Nutrition Month is the annual
campaign held every July to create greater awareness on nutrition among
Filipinos. The 2014 Nutrition Month Theme, "Kalamidad Paghandaan, Gutom at
Malnutrisyon Agapan" focuses on nutrition on emergencies aims to provide the venue for the general public to realize the importance of preparedness
during emergencies, how to respond and what recovery measures can be taken to
prevent death and worsening of malnutrition of affected population groups.
We need to work
together in preparing for calamities so that we can prevent hunger and
malnutrition. There are so many things we can do to be prepared for these
calamities. We can pack our survival bag containing flashlights, first aid kit,
canned goods and other survival stuffs to be needed. We need to save enough
foods that we can eat during calamities. In times of calamities, we prepared to
eat canned goods, noodles and other foods that aren't easy to be spoiled. The
theme of this nutrition month serves as a reminder to all of us that we should
be always prepared for calamities in order to avoid any incidents that can
cause to hunger. Food is a very important thing to the every individual human being.
It gives us energy and nutrition so that are body can function well and can
perform whatever activities we need to do. If we have a shortage on this, many
of us will end up being malnourished, and things like that should not happen.
Proper nutrition is the very thing we need now. It's very important to observe
a proper diet and nutrition especially when we are going to face calamities. So
let us work altogether and fight hunger and malnutrition.
