Dr. B.C.

The meeting stressed practical implementation paths, with Member Secretary Sh. Kamal Kumar Garg, IAS outlining plans to establish pilot programs in selected schools that could serve as models for wider adoption.
Participants also explored potential partnerships between government departments, academic institutions and private sector entities to maximize program effectiveness.

Kamaldeep Singh Sangha, IAS (Retd.), underlined the critical intersection of nutrition, hygiene and health education, while Dr. Satwinder Singh Marwaha, Former Chairman of Punjab Pollution Control Board addressed essential aspects of food quality and safety protocols. Contributions continued with practical insights from Sh. Varinder Brar on resource availability in schools and Sh. Sukhdeep Singh Jhaz's comprehensive presentation on Poshan Vatika initiatives.
Complementing these perspectives, Sh. Sukhdeep Singh Hundal shared expert guidance on climate-appropriate gardening models, while Dr. Ajit Dua elaborated on food testing standards and implementation frameworks.
Further enriching the discussion were specialized interventions from diverse experts addressing complementary dimensions of nutritional security.

Sharing the details, Dr. Baljit Kaur said that the fortnight-long campaign will be observed across the state through a series of activities focused on nutrition awareness, community participation, and sustainable practices.
She informed that this year&rsquo;s POSHAN Pakhwada will have a special focus on improving nutrition during the First 1,000 Days of Life, which is the most critical window for a child&rsquo;s growth and development. The campaign will also emphasize the popularization of the Beneficiary Module in the POSHAN Tracker to strengthen digital monitoring and delivery of nutrition services, along with the management of malnutrition through the CMAM Module, which supports community-based treatment and care for malnourished children.
In addition, special emphasis will be laid on promoting healthy lifestyles to combat childhood obesity by encouraging balanced diets, physical activity, and healthy habits among children. The fortnight will also include large-scale outreach and sensitization efforts to eliminate malnutrition through public awareness and active community engagement. She added that focused efforts will also be made for diarrhoea management and anaemia eradication through preventive care and early intervention.
Dr. Baljit Kaur said that the government, led by Chief Minister S. Bhagwant Singh Mann, is committed to the all-round development of women and children. In view of this, the state government is continuously making efforts for their welfare.
Dr. Baljit Kaur further appealed to all stakeholders&mdash;Anganwadi Workers, Health Workers, Panchayati Raj Institutions, and local communities&mdash;to actively participate in the campaign and ensure its success.
The Minister appealed to everyone to unite in building a Malnutrition-Free Punjab and to ensure a healthier future for our children and mothers.

Goji berries: From eye care to diabetes these berries have immense health benefits

<h2 id="item2" class="hdg4">When it comes to nutrition, goji berries pack a punch. They are not only great for adding a pop of colour to your plate but also delicious and full of flavour.&nbsp;</h2>

Goji berries, also known as wolfberries, are small red berries that have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. They are packed with nutrients and offer several potential health benefits.
Recently, nutritionist Lovneet Batra shared the benefits of goji berries on her Instagram.&nbsp;
1- The antioxidants present in goji berries can help support a healthy immune system, protecting the body against infections and illnesses.
2- The high antioxidant content in goji berries is believed to have anti-ageing effects, which help in reducing oxidative stress and promote youthful-looking skin.
3- Goji berries contain high levels of zeaxanthin, an antioxidant that is beneficial for eye health. Zeaxanthin helps protect the eyes from harmful UV rays and may reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration and other eye disorders.
4- It is a great source of nutrients, including vitamins and minerals. Goji berries contain long-chain carbohydrates which are called polysaccharides. These compounds play a role in regulating blood sugar in the most effective manner and help treat type 2 diabetes.&nbsp;

Constantly bad bowel movements could be a sign of low fibre
Fibre aids water absorption in the body making stool passage easier

While the symptoms of a fibre-deficiency are not super clear, here are some warning signs to watch out for:&nbsp;&nbsp;
Constipation&nbsp;
If you&rsquo;re constantly unable to have clear bowel movements, it might be one of the most obvious&nbsp;signs&nbsp;of&nbsp;being low on fibre. A fibre-rich diet&nbsp;aids&nbsp;water absorption&nbsp;in the body&nbsp;which in turn makes it easier for&nbsp;your stool to pass on out through the intestines.&nbsp;
Constant Hunger&nbsp;
If you&rsquo;re eating all of your meals and still never feel satiated from the food, your meals might be low on fibre.&nbsp;The nutrient slows down the digestion process, regulates blood glucose levels&nbsp;and fibrous foods are also harder to chew. All of this contributes to the feeling of fullness and keep hunger pangs at bay.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Sluggish Feeling&nbsp;
Slower digestion&nbsp;prevents blood sugar spikes and of course, the subsequent crashes. This means that a fibre-rich diet helps maintain&nbsp;stable&nbsp;energy levels&nbsp;throughout the day. So, if you&rsquo;re prone to feeling lethargic, eating some fibre-rich&nbsp;snacks might help.&nbsp;&nbsp;
High Cholesterol&nbsp;
Soluble fibre is also good at binding to dietary cholesterol and helps to eliminate it from the&nbsp;digestive system. A review of 22 studies published in the&nbsp;British Medical Journal found that every&nbsp;additional&nbsp;7 grams of&nbsp;fibre&nbsp;eaten daily&nbsp;can reduce your&nbsp;risk of heart disease by 9 per&nbsp;cent.&nbsp;&nbsp;
If you notice any of these symptoms in your body, take a look at your diet to check whether you&rsquo;re getting the&nbsp;recommended&nbsp;intake of 21 to&nbsp;25 grams of fibre&nbsp;per day for women and&nbsp;30 to 38 grams for men under 50.&nbsp;&nbsp;
