Have you ever notice or wonder that we celebrate different activities every Month? An example are the Buwan ng Wika in August and the Nutrition Month in July. Every year, the National Nutrition Council leads the whole nation in celebrating the Nutrition Month, its intention was to broadcast nutrition messages to all Filipino through an important theme. This year 2012, the theme is “Pagkain ng gulay ay ugaliin, araw-araw itong ihain.”
The 38th Nutrition Month celebration emphasizes the importance of vegetables to our everyday life and for us also to know the nutritional benefits contain in it. Its purpose also was to inspire all the citizens in this country to cook and eat vegetables for the reason that this food contains different nutrition, like for example the vitamin A that is needed by the retina of the eye. You can found Vitamin A on green leafy vegetables.
Another vitamin is the B1, vitamin B1 is important in the production of energy. The following are some examples of vegetable that contains this vitamin: Squash, Corn, Beans, Okra, Potatoes and many more.
Different vegetables contain different nutrition. So eat different vegetables everyday to gain different nutrition on your body.
According to my research, eating vegetables everyday can prolong your life because there are so many health benefits that you can get. So what are you waiting for? Eat vegetables everyday and make it a habit for you to have a healthy life style.
