Question

Match the following food choices with their nutritional requirements for a person.

• A. 11 per year
• B. 100 per day
• C. 180 per year
• D. 300 per day

Answer 1

To have a healthy life, nutritionists suggest intake of certain foods in the diet. Accordingly, every person in India must eat 300 grams of vegetables and 100 grams of fruits per day. The suggested requirement for eggs per person per year is 180.
Similarly, the requirement of meat per person per year is 11 kilograms. But many Indians fail to meet this standard. In this context, crop diversification can be a solution to increase the availability of various types of food.
