HOW TO PROMOTE HEALTHY DIET

The pattern of food consumed in this period can not be compared to what was being consumed in the few past years except maybe in traditional festivities. This is due to factors such as income,food prices (which will availability and affordability of healthy foods), individual preferences and beliefs and geographical and environmental aspects (including climate change). Therefore, promoting a healthy food environment would require the involvement of multiple sectors and stakeholders including government and the public and private sectors.

*Choosing fresh fruits instead of sweet snacks such as cookies, cakes and chocolate helps reduce consumption of sugars.
*Limiting intake of soft drinks, soda and other drinks high in sugars ( fruit juices, cordials and syrups, flavoured milks and yogurt drinks) also helps reduce intake of sugars.

Here is some useful information,based on WHO recommendations to follow a healthy diet, and the benefits of doing so.

1. Breastfeed babies and young children: A healthy diet starts early in life- breastfeeding fosters healthy growth and may have longer -term health benefits,like reducing the risk of becoming overweight or obese and developing non-communicable diseases later in life.
Feeding babies exclusively with breast milk from birth to 6months of life is important for a healthy diet. It is also important to introduce a variety of safe and nutritious complementary foods at 6months of age, while continuing to breastfeed until your child is two years old and beyond.
