Being aware of my daily food intake is important because it helps with maintaining my overall health while supporting both my physical and mental well-being. In the nursing profession, this awareness is relevant as it creates a deeper understanding of nutrition and its impact on patient care. Nursing includes educating patients about healthy eating, assisting with meal planning, as well as monitoring their dietary intake. By acting as a model through my healthy eating habits and understanding of nutritional needs, I can promote better health outcomes, improve quality of life and especially enhance patient recovery.
