Food literacy has been used in certain research to define a similar notion as nutrition literacy. This involves comprehending nutrition information and taking action on that knowledge to promote nutrition goals and social well-being. On a broader array, the competence to make decisions that encourage an individual’s health and a sustainable food system while focusing on environmental, social, economic, cultural, and political aspects. Preventing non-communicable diseases and malnutrition necessitates multi-level strategies that encourage individuals to take charge of the variables that are directly within their control, such as improving their dietary patterns, avoiding tobacco, and engaging in physical activity. Everyday dietary choices have an impact on a person’s health, including their body weight and several non-communicable disease risk factors like cholesterol levels and blood pressure levels. Nutrition and food literacy is essential for anyone’s well-being and fights against non-communicable illnesses.
