~*What's Life without Food*~



We can all be very different in our traditions, lifestyles and ages; but we all have a common fear, the fear of death.

In fact,every living cell has to die and the law of immortality belongs to the only legendary fields of dreams.

Hence,every single living creature looks forward to increasing its chances of survival on the so called,planet earth.

Within the development of science and technology,the life span of human beings has drastically changed.In reality,that wasn’t only due to the role of vaccines,drugs and surgeries that have cured many diseases but also to the role of an extremely important science;the science of Nutrition.

Nutrition defined as the necessary material to support life and to prevent death is highly correlated to the food intake.It had been uncovered a long time ago; back to the era B.C , Hippocrates,considered one of the most outstanding figures in the history of medicine declared : “Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food”.

Since ancient times life revolves around eating and various religious groups included food as a vital part of their faith.Various countries used food in different ways to help celebrate special occasions ;unite, strenghten community bonds and maintain a common identity among a group of people.

As a result,the famous quote "You are What You eat" has enough credits to stand on its own and Dietitians have been more than accredited to help "You" in your daily food choices in order for "You" to squeeze the most out of life!

I will be more than happy to answer all of your questions related to Nutrition and to embark you with me on a healthy journey where you will learn how to eat in a balanced way in order to have a better quality and quantity of life .
