MUMBAI,10th JANUARY, 2020 (GPN) : Members of Indian Dietetic Association (IDA) on the occasion of Dietetics Day (10^th January) took the initiative of reaching the unreached segment of the society to create awareness on balanced diet. Dietician Sonia Sinha founder of  fitfoody.in with 20 years of experience in food and nutrition and member of IDA conducted several sessions in Mumbai to share easy tips with the locals on how to include balanced meals in their life.

During her sessions with the Mumbaikars, dietician Sonia Sinha analysed their food pattern and taught them how to consume balanced meals even in their limited resources. In her session she emphasised on the fact that initiatives such as ‘Fit India’ should’ not be a just the project initiated by our government, but an awakening call for the entire country. Food systems around the world are delivering unhealthy diet patterns, raising the risk of death and non-communicable diseases like diabetes, blood pressure, malnutrition, and rising obesity; and India is no behind.

Interacting with the ‘women of the house’ in various localities of Lower Parel, Andheri, Kandivali and Borivali, Dietician Sonia Sinha said, “Inculcating the habit of eating right and learning the art of balancing meals is very important for each segment of our society. Through basic awareness programs, balanced diet, combination of right amount of nutrients can be taught easily and be incorporated in everyone’s daily busy schedule.”

On the occasion of Dietetics Day, several members of IDA conducted numerous such awareness programs across the country and pledged to reach the unreached segments of the society this year to elevate the health of our nation. ENDS
