Food is a more basic need of man than shelter and clothing. Food is a most inevitable part of our existence. Human body cannot exist without food. After air and water, food is the utmost important thing for survival. Throughout human existence food has also been used, as an expression of love, friendship and social acceptance.  Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for the body. It is usually of plant or animal origin, and contains essential nutrients, such as carbohydrate, fat, proteins, vitamins or minerals. Food is a substance which after ingestion (intake of food), digestion (complex substance in food is broken down to simpler complexes) and absorption (nutrients move into the blood after digestion) is capable being utilized by the body for its various functions. Food is a mixture of substances that can be safely ingested. The constituents of food are necessary for:

Energy yielding by carbohydrates and fats Body building using proteins and minerals Protection Regulation of waste, roughage (dietary fiber) etc.

            Nutrition is a science that studies the relationship between diet and health.The diet of an organism is what it eats, which is largely determined by the availability and palatability of foods. For humans, a healthy diet includes preparation of food and storage methods that preserve nutrients from oxidation, heat or leaching, and that reduce risk of foodborne illness.

In humans, an unhealthy diet can cause deficiency-related diseases such as blindness, anemia, scurvy, preterm birth, stillbirth and cretinism, or nutrient excess health-threatening conditions such as obesity etc. i.e. nutrition is a science that interprets the interaction of nutrients and other substances in food in relation to maintenance, growth, reproduction, health and disease of an organism. It includes food intake, absorption, assimilation, biosynthesis, catabolism and excretion.

 Nutrition also focuses on how disease conditions and problems can be prevented or lessened with a healthy diet. In addition nutrition involves identifying how certain diseases, conditions or problems may be caused by dietary factors, such as poor diet (under nutrition), food allergies, metabolic diseases, etc.

As the old tissues are broken, consumed or spent in work through the process of katabolism, food replaces the same through the process of anabolism. Combination of these two processes goes on continuously in the human body and the combined process is known as metabolism.

The quantity of food needed daily by a child or adult varies according to the nature of occupation, general health and the rate of metabolism. Both over-eating and under-eating are harmful. Therefore, there is need for knowing the exact amount of nutrition needed by a person or his balanced diet. Lack of proper nutrition or balanced diet is called malnutrition. In India, malnutrition is a common problem with most of the children and adults.
