                   We are celebrating the Nutrition Month because it help us to prevent hunger and malnutrition. It helps all Filipinos to be healthy so that we can live longer in this world. And it help us to be a good in everything.

                   The theme aims to uphold interventions in addressing the nutrition needs of the Filipinos extending from preparedness response, recovery and rehabilitation phases. It is believed that underpinning nutrition awareness is a great key to better prepare and efficiently respond to Nutrition in every emergencies.The NNC Technical Committee approved this focus considering the impact of emergencies and disasters, natural and human-induced, on the nutritional status of affected population groups. Nutrition emergencies refer to situations in which food security is often severely threatened causing increased risk to malnutrition, illness and death.
