Availability of Food and Level of Nutrition in Sagar and Durg Districts:A Comparative Study

Balanced diet and sufficient nutrition is the cornerstone of the healthy life. What we eat can determine our health, stamina, resistance to stress, energy and attitude. There is a growing realization that adequate nutrition is a necessary first step in the improvement of the quality of life. The diet survey of the sample rural families of Sagar and Durg districts, though located far away, show similar poor status with respect to intake of balanced, nutritional diet and general awareness. Availability of foodstuffs and nutrition in these districts is much lower in comparison to recommended norms which are cause of anxiety.
