In recognition of Nutrition Month 2023, I rise today to talk about and acknowledge something

our school is taking very seriously - the health and wellness of our pupils, teachers, parents and those
who are concerned of healthy living and lifestyle.
An inspiring nutritious morning to all of us especially to our visitors mam Dina De Asis, to our
PTA President Ejer V. Olojan, to our beautiful and handsome learners & supportive parents.
National Nutrition Month is an annual nutrition education and information campaign created by
the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. The campaign’s goal is to draw attention to the importance of
making informed food choices and developing healthy eating and physical activity habits. The theme
of national nutrition month in 2023 is “Fuel the Future”. This theme serves as a timely reminder of
the importance of nutrition to our health and well-being. A well-balanced diet rich in whole grains,
(oats, wheat, corn, popcorn, brown rice) fruits and vegetables, proteins and and healthy fats can
provide us with the energy and nutrients we require to fuel our bodies and minds. Healthy eating has
been shown to improve cognitive function,(makabright) lower the risk of chronic diseases (diabetes,
cancer, asthma, HIV, arthritis etc.) and improve overall physical and mental health.
Nutrition can be used to fuel not only our bodies but also our future. Eating a balanced diet can
help us achieve our personal health goals such as losing weight or increasing our energy levels.
Consuming a variety of nutrient-dense foods (garlic, seaweed, shellfish, potatoes, liver, sardines,
egg yolks, dark chocolates etc.) can also help us stay energized throughout the day, allowing us to
be more focused and productive.
Today is the excellent time to examine our eating habits and make changes that will benefit us
in the long run. Small dietary changes such as choosing more fruits and vegetables in our meals can
have a significant impact on our over all health. Furthermore, getting enough exercise and limiting our
intake of sugary drinks and processed foods can help us reach our health goals.
One should never underestimate the importance of eating healthy food. The benefits of eating
a healthy diet include living a longer life, feeling happier, gaining vitality, weight loss and a
healthy appearance. Eating healthy foods means we can fight diseases and live longer. When it
comes to happiness, studies have shown that eating healthy foods is an excellent natural anti-
depressant.
As an institution, we can and we will provide actions and applications for children to become
better equipped to lead healthier lives. Let’s surge forward of achieving a healthy-living school.
Today, I would like to issue a challenge to everyone to infuse a healthy culture in life-inside and
outside the school premises.
We all have the power to take real actions to improve our health. I encourage you to look for
opportunities each and everyday to make an improvement of your own health. In addition, I would like
to extend my warmest congratulations to everyone for a job well done. May you have healthy living
and continue living healthy.
And on behalf of the Sangahon Elementary School teaching force and staff, I welcome you all
to this Nutrition Month Culmination Program for the school year 2022 - 2023. Thank you very much
and God bless us more.
