Several parts of India are getting ready to celebrate Ganeshotsav and welcome Lord Ganesha this September. Even as people take on fasting, it is important to eat nutritious meals that will help them sustain throughout the day. Every year, National Nutrition Week is observed from September 1 to 7 around the world to highlight the role of a healthy diet and the importance of well-being in our daily lives. As the years pass by, the role of nutrition is more pronounced than ever before as people lead busy lifestyles that may often mean they take their meals for granted. It gets even more complicated as many people take on fad diets, which may often pose a challenge while fasting.

They not only shed light on the importance of nutrition while fasting but also stress the need for hydration along with timely meals.
