Ngayong , punuin ang inyong mga puso ng pagmamahalan at huwag ng namuong taba mula sa sobrang pagkonsumo ng mga pagkaing mataas sa 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗦 𝗙𝗔𝗧. 🫀

Oh heartners, be kind to your heart. Di bale na sigurong masaktan, ‘wag lang puso ay mabarahan. Kaya naman Puso’y Alagaan, ang Trans Fat ay iwasan! 😉

The National Nutrition Council (NNC) joins the nation in observing Goiter Awareness Week 2026, an annual campaign aimed at increasing public awareness on Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD) and promoting proper nutrition for optimal thyroid health.
Goiter is a preventable condition, primarily caused by inadequate iodine intake, yet it remains a public health concern affecting individuals across all ages. Left unaddressed, iodine deficiency can impair growth, development, and overall well-being.

This year, the NNC calls on individuals, families, communities, and local government units to take proactive action by ensuring adequate iodine intake through the use of iodized salt, consumption of a balanced diet, and regular health check-ups. Strengthening nutrition education and awareness is key to preventing goiter and other iodine deficiency–related disorders.

Together, let us work towards empowering every Filipino to protect their thyroid health and achieve overall wellness, as we support the shared vision of a healthier nation free from preventable nutrition-related conditions

Kumusta, mga Ka-Nutrisyon? 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝗚𝗮𝗵𝘂𝗺 𝘀𝗮 𝗡𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘆𝗼𝗻 is here to provide information and tips about 𝙃𝙞𝙙𝙙𝙚𝙣 𝙃𝙪𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧 !

Hidden hunger, or micronutrient deficiencies, happens when the body does not get enough essential vitamins and minerals. In the Philippines, the most common forms are Vitamin A Deficiency (VAD), Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA), and Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD).

To combat hidden hunger, the government implements key programs such as Republic Act No. 8976 (Food Fortification Act of 2000) and RA 8172 (ASIN Law), along with supplementation, nutrition education, and the promotion of a balanced diet.

Stay tuned for the next May Gahum sa Nutrisyon! 🥰💡

No fries, no soda

Gawing kumpleto ang takeout mo, mag add ng fiber, tulad ng cucumber at lettuce, at alisin yung redundant source ng carbs, for example Rice+Spaghetti or Pancit+Fries or Burger, yung chicken meron din yan minsan dahil sa breadings.

Hindi mahirap kumaen ng healthy kahit busy, kailangan molang maging aware sa mga kailangan mong idagdag at ibawas sa meal na ino order mo.

Enjoy your carbs!
