The Impact of Mandatory Nutrition Education on Health.

Fittest Body with Nutrition: Benefit of Mandatory Nutrition Education in Society

As living organisms, food is one of the resources that is essential to live and for the body to function normally. I believe every country around the world is faced with a nutritional issue due to economic, foods and environment because I have experience with health and nutrition issue in both developing and developed societies. During this semester, I plan to do research on the advantage and disadvantage of MNE (Mandatory Nutrition Education) and how disease related to obesity effect children and adult’s lives as well as concerning about mine, my families and society’s health and want to live a long life in this wonderful world. I interested in this topic because

Currently, government required every import and export food products to have a nutrition label on to let the customer know the nutrition fact of products. This gives us the ideas to know what the sources are contained in the products. However, the U.S still has the highest percentage of obesity and diseases that relate to nutritional. I have read one of the articles Why Schools Need a Mandatory Nutrition Curriculum by Puccini and Romero and this article explained us how being obese effect today’s lives, especially the children and youth.

Every society needed MNE to learn how the nutrition works and how it helps them to maintain and control their diet. Learning nutrition at the early age would have less obesity.

The allies will be the government who regulate the food for their people and opponent will
