HCM\u00a0CITY\u00a0\u2014\u00a0More than 3,000\u00a0locals and tourists\u00a0participated in\u00a0a wide range of exciting activities designed to equip them with essential knowledge on nutrition and\u00a0healthy lifestyles\u00a0at the\u00a06th Vi\u1ec7t\u00a0Nam\u00a0Community Nutrition Day held\u00a0in HCM City on May 24.<\/p>\n

Organised by\u00a0S\u1ee9c kho\u1ebb v\u00e0 \u0110\u1eddi s\u1ed1ng\u00a0(Health and Life) newspaper under the Ministry of Health in\u00a0coordination with\u00a0Herbalife Vi\u1ec7t Nam, the annual event is aimed at\u00a0raising public awareness of the vital role of balanced nutrition and regular exercise.<\/p>\n

The highlights of the event were engaging nutritional knowledge and physical performances from the 20 competition teams, selected from over 100 registered groups.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This contest underscored the powerful role that supportive, like-minded communities play in helping individuals achieve long-term health and wellness goals.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Furthermore, more than 1,000 participants received personalised nutrition and fitness guidance from top health experts at free consultation booths.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Speaking\u00a0at the event,\u00a0Deputy Minister of Health Tr\u1ea7n V\u0103n Thu\u1ea5n\u00a0said\u00a0that the conveniences of modern life\u00a0have led to insufficient physical activity among Vietnamese people, increasing the risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and many chronic illnesses.<\/p>\n

Fast food, sugary drinks, sedentary lifestyle, smoking,\u00a0and alcohol-abuse are silently eroding\u00a0well-being, Thu\u1ea5n said.<\/p>\n

“The more the economy develops and technology becomes more convenient, the more people tend to be less active, eat faster, sleep later, and experience more stress,\u201d\u00a0he said.<\/p>\n

Non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cancer develop from these habits over many years, he said.<\/p>\n

Disease prevention begins with small choices in daily life\u00a0such as eating less salty meals, replacing sugary drinks with filtered water, spending 30 minutes walking each morning, and turning off your phone earlier each evening to get enough sleep, he added.<\/p>\n

Tr\u1ea7n Tu\u1ea5n Linh, Editor-in-Chief of\u00a0S\u1ee9c kho\u1ebb v\u00e0 \u0110\u1eddi s\u1ed1ng\u00a0newspaper, said:\u00a0\u201cMaintaining a science-based diet combined with personalised exercise on a regular basis and sustaining an optimistic mind is the simplest yet most effective \u2018prescription\u2019 for health protection.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through this programme, the organisers\u00a0hope to spread healthy living habits to the wider community, he said.\u00a0\u2014VNS<\/p>\n
