On March 5, 2024, on the basis of dormitory No. 4, as part of the Saturday events plan, teachers of the Department of Public Health Tokesheva Sh.M. and Beisengazina M.B. held an event (lecture) on the topic: “Nutrition and health”. The lecture was attended by students living in this hostel.  During the lecture, the principles of proper nutrition, the relationship between nutrition and health were discussed.

“Everyone knows that you need to eat right. But what is really behind this concept? A healthy diet is considered to be one in which a person is provided with full development, growth, vital energy and excellent well-being. To adhere to a proper diet, you just need to learn how to consume enough protein, fat and carbohydrates for your body. Its positive effect on the body has been proven, especially in combination with physical exercise. Healthy food promotes longevity and prevents obesity, the development of diabetes mellitus, heart and vascular problems, and hypertension.”

The students were provided with thematic information and educational materials (booklets). After the lecture, feedback was provided, during which students were able to ask questions and share their opinions.

“You need to take care of your body. And only then will it respond in kind. Systematic adherence to the principles of a healthy diet will keep you healthy for many years to come.”
