Gutom at Malnutrition 

Sama-sama natin Wakasan

                                      Malnutrition? What comes to your mind when you heard the word malnutrition? Malnutrition is a faulty nutrition due to inadequate or imbalanced intake of nutrients of their impaired assimilation or utilization.
                                      These year, many Filipinos out there are malnourished because of poverty. There are many children out there who are starving for food because their parents don't have enough work for them to have food. They usually eat once a day and not trice a day. There are many children who are roaming around the Plaza, along the highways of wherever for them to find food which was being eaten by flies and grab it without knowing if that food is clean and safe enough for them to eat. And that's the start of being malnourished and sickly. Then there must be the accompaniment of their parent to guide them not to walk in a wrong way. So, many people especially children are malnourished nowadays. Some case is that, they don't eat fruits, vegetables and other nutritious food. They usually eat chichiryas, junk foods, and other food that are not nutritious that may lead to sickness and malnutrition. These"Gutom at Malnutrition sama-sama natin Wakasan" is the theme of the nutrition month celebration. It states that we, all of us have the right to deprive hunger and malnutrition here in our country so that all of us will be healthy. We shall eat fruits and vegetable so that we will be far from sickness and far from being malnourished.
                                       I, as a student of ISNHS, I shall convince people especially the children to eat nutritious food. And we, all of us will join forces to deprive hunger and malnutrition here in our country.
