Most of the foods we eat, provide several nutrients. So to make a wiser diet plan, it is prudent to select a combination of foods that deliver a full contingent of nutrients for good health. Our major focus should be on selecting foods that will deliver all the essential nutrients without excessive energy intake. Food choices made over years influence the body’s health, and consistently poor choices increase the risks of developing chronic diseases.
Life cannot be sustained without adequate nourishment.
Man needs adequate food for growth and development and to lead an active and healthy life.
Food plays an important role in maintaining a person's nutritional and health status.
PLANTS
Many plant & plant part are eaten as a food.
Seeds are good source of food for animals including humans because they contain nutrients.
All seeds are not healthy. Eg- apple seeds & cherry seeds contains cyanide.
Age:
During the growth period, the BMR is high, therefore during infancy the energy need per Kg of body weight is highest than during adulthood.
The period at which the basal metabolism reaches its highest level is between the ages of 1-2 years.
A gradual decline occurs between the age of 2-5 years, with a more rapid decline until adult age.
Sex:
The BMR is higher in adolescent boys and adult males as compared to adolescent girls and adult females though it is not due to direct influence of sex differences, but are due to the differences in body composition.
Males have a greater amount of muscles and glandular tissues which is metabolically more active whereas, females have greater adipose tissues which is metabolically less active, Hence energy requirement of males is higher than of females.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. What is Nutrition?
It is the science of foods, the nutrients, and other
substances therein, their action, interaction, and
balance in relationship to health and disease.
What is Education?
Education is the process of bringing desirable
change in the behavior of human beings. The
behavioral changes must be directed towards a
desirable end.
3. Nutrition Education
educating for better nutrition and thus bringing the desirable
positive changes in knowledge, attitude and practice in order
to enhance the nutritional status of the individual and
community as a whole.
Importance of nutrition Education
An important part of the nutrition gap is the information gap.
Although poor economic condition does stand in the way of
improved nutrition, but, ignorance regarding nutrients
needed by the body and cheap foods which can provide
them and better utilization of the resources, are also partly
responsible.
4. • The importance of nutrition education as a means
for improving nutrition of the community in the
developing countries has increased rapidly during
the recent past.
• Lack of awareness about the dietary requirements
and nutritive value of different food is the main
cause for prevailing malnutrition among school
children, pregnant women, lactating mother and
other vulnerable sections of the community.
• Whether food supplies are scarce or abundant, it
is essential that people know how best to use
their resources to access a variety of safe and
good quality foods; to ensure nutritional
wellbeing.
5. The mutually reinforcing relationship between nutrition,
health and education is shown in Figure Good nutrition is
the basis for good health, and both help in making
education effective; good education.
6. Aims of Nutrition Education
Knowing which sort of problems it might solve and how
to use resources in the most effective way.
Helping people to develop new attitudes and confidence
that they need to improve their nutritional habits, and how
to feed to their families.
Developing nutrition advisory services and nutrition
education of the public.
Training local key persons, health workers, agricultural
extensionists and other community or project workers for
further promotion of the messages.
Improving nutritional status/ level in the community.
7. Settings for Nutrition Education actions
Nutrition educator must first understand why people follow
a particular pattern of feeding practices. One should find out
the details in order to have a good understanding of the
people who are to be taught, e.g.
— Where do they live?
— How much do they earn?
— Is their diet good or bad?
— What changes if any should they make in their diet?
8. — What are their food customs - hot and cold foods, and
special diets given to pregnant and nursing mothers etc.?
— Where foods are consumed (e.g. public sector catering in
schools, workplaces, households)?
—Where foods are produced (e.g. agricultural/field
settings?)
—Where foods are sold (e.g. retailers, public sector
catering)?
— Can they afford to make changes which educators
consider necessary?

9. General Considerations for Successful Nutrition
Education:
Provide a clear formulation of the nutritional
problems.
When designing “messages”: keep them short
and simple and ensure that they are clear;.
Make people think about nutrition problems.
Have Something to demonstrate- a learning aid.
Real things such as food items or utensils that
people use are better than pictures or posters.
Get the audience to participate- encourage them
to ask questions and discuss issues of importance.
Use different methods and tools of Nutrition
Education to transmit the same message.
10. Methods of Nutrition
Education of the Community:
a. Lectures and demonstrations
The lecture should be simple and too elaborate. It should be easily
adoptable by the people attending the course. The demonstrations
should be simple and these should make good use of locally available
resources with the help of which it can be easily adopted by the
community.
11. b. Workshops
The nutrition work should discuss the prevailing
nutritional problem in the community in simplest
form and the solution for it.
12. c. Film and slide shows
These are extremely effective mode of education.
They should be practical and illustrative and easily
understandable.
13. d. Poster, charts and exhibition
Posters should be simple and should immediately catch the attention of the
viewers and should be written in the regional language. The letters should be
clearly and easily visible at a distance too. Charts also should be in a position to
stimulate the interest of the people. The charts should be well-balanced with the
use appropriate colors and should not be crowded
14. e. Books, pamphlets, bulletins and news paper
Printed matter for Nutrition Education is suitable for educating
students, teachers and other professionals. These materials should be
made available in regional languages and should give sufficient
information.
15. • f. Radio and television.
Radio and Television programmes reach a large number of audiences
within no time. Jokes, stories, dramas, etc. Involving the nutritional
problem help to create large scale awareness.

18. Conclusion and
Recommendations:
Good nutritional habits and a balanced diet aren't developed in
one day, nor are they destroyed in one unbalanced meal.
Nutrition education is an important element in an overall
strategy aimed at improving food security and preventing all
forms of malnutrition. So it should be taken into account to our
government agencies, NGOs, Schools, colleges, Universities to
share the knowledge about foods and their nutrients to
common people, students, pregnant women etc. to improve
their health, eating habits. Also they can share to their families,
friends and near ones.
