Dr Subhasree in her address said that nutrition is indispensable for a good health. "A wide range of versatile foods including whole grains, legumes, beans, green leafy vegetables, low carbohydrate fruits, lean protein, nuts, seeds and probiotics is crucial to prevent metabolic disorders such as diabetes type 2, obesity and others.

"First, make a long-term goal with time duration, stock healthy food in your kitchen, include more of fruits, nuts, seeds, sprouts, grains and curd in your diet. Maintain a healthy gut by eating lots of fruits, curd, smoothies, garlic and salads."

Dr Kesari who also moderated the webinar said, "Health and Fitness both go hand in hand, while health encompasses a much broader aspect including nutritious, healthy, & hygienic food, clean environment, sanitation, a healthy lifestyle etc., good health can be maintained by regular exercise and well-balanced diet."
