Combination of good nutrition, balanced diet, absence of substance abuse/ addiction and  stress, regular physical activity/Exercise,  hygienic life style ( living in safe, green and clean environment) are the corner stone for good health at individual and society level.

Poor nutrition usually resulted in:
