The West Bengal government has taken a decision to publish a full book on the nutritional values of foods targeting the Bengali-speaking people. The move is being initiated to make people aware of the medicinal qualities of fruits and vegetables local to the region, with each page detailing the nutritional values of certain foods.
The Minister of State for Food and Supplies emphasized the importance of providing nutritional information in the Bengali language so that the communities can make dietary choices. The book will be of immense benefit to families, nutritionists, and school teachers, and will promote healthy eating habits throughout the state.
Scheduled for release later this year, this initiative is among ongoing efforts to create greater public awareness of health and nutrition in West Bengal, reflecting a dedication to general community well-being.
