Yes indeed, it's very important to teach students about Food medicine because it will make the students to gained more knowledge and learn something good that will actually helps them to defend their self in the public, it will actually helps students to discuss with the person about how food can be like medicines in our body , it will also helps students to make informed choices about their diet and also enable them to take control of their diet.

By also teaching students about the medicinal properties of food, student may also consider to pursue careers in health care and develop essential life skills in meal cooking and planning. In this case I think it's very important for school to teach students about food medicine.

By doing all this we can unlock the full potential of food as a powerful tool for achieving a proper health and well-being, also remember that the right foods can be the best medicine of all.

Thank you all for taking out time to read and go through my blog, I love you all. I will invite three of my friends to also follow and participate in this contest.
