Webinar on Health and Nutrition by nutritionist, Ms Neha Sharma

"Yatha Annam Tatha Mannam."  - Mental and intellectual development is directly related to the quality of our food intake.

On December 5, 2020, a webinar on ‘Health and Nutrition’ was conducted for the parents of The Indian School-Second Shift by noted nutritionist, Ms Neha Sharma.

  

The webinar began with an inspiring quote by Acting Principal, Ms Sukhmeen Kaur Cheema, ‘If Exercise is the King, Nutrition is the Queen.’ Taking this thought forward Ms Neha Sharma stated that good nutrition helps to prevent 95 per cent of all diseases.

She highlighted that nutrition and proper nourishment play a crucial role in helping children and students attain their optimum potential. It is necessary that children be well-nourished and it is the parents' responsibility to ensure this. Further, she added that nutrition is not merely eating but getting essential nutrients like salts, vitamins, minerals etc.


Ms Sharma beautifully explained why proper nutrition is important for growing children and how parents can develop healthy eating habits among their children by being role models. She revealed how parents can bring creativity on the plate for their children. In the end, she also shared some remarkably interesting recipes with the parents, who enthusiastically asked questions which were answered with the utmost ease by the speaker.


It was indeed an interactive and informative session for the parents as well as the teachers.
