The Kinnaird College Food and Nutrition Club organised the first ‘Nutrition Awareness Day’ on Monday at the college premises. The day was celebrated to promote healthy and nutritious eating habits among the youth, with the themes “the best wealth is health” and “our food should be our medicine and our medicine should be our food”.
Several stalls were set up, including the “Food Expo Corner” where home-made food items were presented by the students, bone density determination and toss down. Other stalls included the free nutrition assessment determination in which Body Mass Index (BMI) was determined. Free diet counselling of the students as well as the faculty was also done and diet plans were given away. A cooking contest was also held on the occasion.
