#NFHS-5

[indizombie]

There are two statistics in NFHS-5 that ought to be a much greater source of worry for the Assam government and for all who care for girls and women. Women’s job opportunities in the state declined sharply over the previous decade, and the sex ratio at birth in urban Assam is worryingly low at 916 girls per 1,000 boys. In the face of such facts, why is “child marriage” becoming the state’s number one law-and-order problem? Putting husbands, fathers or priests in jail will not empower women or stop underage marriage. It will only make women even more vulnerable, encourage concealment, and strengthen prejudices against minorities and the poor.

कम उम्र की लड़कियों से शादी करने वाले पुरुषों पर असम में शिकंजा | Men who have married underage girls face harsh penalties in Assam;

असम में बाल विवाह (लड़कियों की शादी उम्र से पहले)

गुवाहाटी: असम कैबिनेट ने सोमवार को राज्य पुलिस को 14 साल से कम उम्र की लड़कियों से शादी करने वाले पुरुषों पर कार्रवाई शुरू करने और उन्हें पॉक्सो एक्ट के तहत गिरफ्तार करने का निर्देश दिया, जबकि 14 से 18 साल की उम्र की लड़कियों से शादी करने वालों को गिरफ्तार किया जाएगा। बाल विवाह निषेध अधिनियम, 2006 के तहत।

मुख्यमंत्री हिमंत बिस्वा सरमा ने कहा कि मोटे अनुमान के मुताबिक, राज्य में एक लाख से ज्यादा लड़कियों की शादी उम्र से पहले कर दी गई है।

राष्ट्रीय परिवार स्वास्थ्य सर्वेक्षण-5 का हवाला देते हुए

(2019-20) की रिपोर्ट में सरमा ने कहा कि असम में बाल विवाह की संख्या बढ़ रही है। उन्होंने कहा, 'हमारे अपने एक सर्वे में हमने पाया है कि राज्य में महज नौ साल की एक लड़की मां बनी है।'

चूंकि पिछली सरकारों ने राज्य में बाल विवाह निषेध अधिनियम, 2006 पर ध्यान नहीं दिया, इसलिए हमारी शिशु मृत्यु दर और मातृ मृत्यु दर देश में सबसे अधिक बनी हुई है।

यह एक ऐतिहासिक भूल है और हम इसे सुधारने का प्रयास कर रहे हैं। उम्मीद है कि अब से सालों बाद हम असम को बाल विवाह से पूरी तरह मुक्त कर सकते हैं, 'असम के सीएम ने कहा।

NFHS-5 सर्वेक्षण के अनुसार, 20 से 24 वर्ष की आयु की महिलाएं जिनकी शादी 18 वर्ष की आयु से पहले हुई थी, असम में 31% से अधिक महिलाएं हैं, जबकि 2019-20 में राष्ट्रीय औसत 23% से अधिक है......

NGO Working For Healthcare And The Need To Work On Maternal and Child Health Nutrition

In India, nutrition and the health of mothers and children are crucial issues that must be addressed. The main health issues facing the nation have been poor nutrition, poor maternity and child health, and limited access to healthcare services. The NFHS-5 report states that 32% of children under the age of five are malnourished and that around 60% of women and girls in the 15–49 age range are anaemic. According to a UNICEF estimate, 46.6 million children under the age of five in India suffer from stunting, making it the country with the greatest rate of malnutrition among children worldwide. In India, maternal mortality is a serious problem as well; problems connected to pregnancy are thought to claim the lives of 35,000 women each year. Malnutrition has a well-documented negative impact on people and society, and its effects on economic development and growth are extensive. Thus, in order for India to achieve the aims of the Sustainable Development Goals, a comprehensive strategy to increasing nutrition and mother and child health is essential with the help of NGO working for healthcare. Read more

National Nutrition Week: Essentials You Must Include in Your Diet

Food is one of the essential components of our life. It is considered a basic human right, as everyone, rich and poor cannot survive without food. It is said that without food, a person can only survive for 2–3 months.

However, eating is not enough to have a healthy life. To increase your lifespan, it is essential to inculcate a diet plan that consists of vital nutrients. One must eat healthily to be free from diseases.

To raise awareness about the importance of nutrients, September 1–7 is celebrated as ‘National Nutrition Week’. This week was established by the American Dietetic Association (ADA), now known as the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics in 1973. National Nutrition Week was first introduced to India in 1982.

The theme for this year is “Healthy Diet Gawing Affordable for All”. The theme stresses making nutritious food accessible to all regardless of socio-economic status. It emphasizes the idea that a healthy diet should not be a privilege but a fundamental right that everyone can enjoy.

According to the National Family Health Survey (NFHS) 2019–21, India has seen little to no improvement in health and nutrition status among the general populace. The study said that 7.7% of children are severely wasted, 19.3% are wasted, 3.4% of children are overweight and 35.5% are stunted. Similar disturbing statistics were found among the adult population. 24% of adult women were found to be obese, while the obesity rate in men was 22.9%.

This comes as a shock and makes you wonder ‘Are we going through a health crisis?’ To stop any future diseases, we must strive for a healthy body. In this blog piece, we are going to detail some advice on how we can achieve better health through diet.

Protein

While one might be sick of hearing gym bros talk about protein all the time, they are right. Protein is one of the most vital aspects of our body. They are considered to be ‘the building blocks of life’. About 16% of body weight is due to protein. It is vital for growth, health, and body maintenance.

Foods Rich in Protein: Eggs, Meat, Lentis, Cottage Cheese (Paneer), Milk and Chickpeas (Chana)

2. Carbohydrates

According to Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 45 to 60 percent of daily calories should come from carbohydrates. They act as fuel for the human body, driving up our energy levels, helping control blood glucose and insulin metabolism, participating in cholesterol and triglyceride metabolism, and helping with fermentation.

Foods Rich in Carbohydrates: Sweet Potatoes, Brown Rice, Beans, Bread, Fruits, and Kidney Beans (Rajma).

3. Fats

Fats might be infamous when it comes to dietary habits. But don’t let that fool you, because fats are important and support functions such as vitamin and mineral absorption, blood clotting, building cells, and muscle movement. World Health Organization (WHO) suggests keeping fats under 30 percent of your calories.

Foods Rich in Fats: Vegetable oils (such as olive, canola, sunflower, soy, and corn), Nuts, Seeds, Fish, and Butter.

4. Vitamins

A lack of Vitamins can cause severe problems in our body, as it plays a role in maintaining our vision, skin, and bones. They can also boost your immune system and lower the risk of lung and prostate cancer.

Foods Rich in Vitamins: Spinach, Carrots, Liver, Broccoli, and Tomatoes

5. Minerals

Strong bones and teeth, regulation of metabolism, and hydration are all thanks to minerals present in our body. There are different kinds of minerals, some of which are calcium, iron, and zinc.

Foods Rich in Minerals: Cereals, Bread, Fruits, Meat and Dairy Nuts.

Filaantro realizes the importance of nutrients in our lives. Along with our partner, Child Help Foundation, we have conducted numerous food distribution drives. To date, we have fed over 20,01,457 people through the Zero Hunger Programme. You can also raise funds for conducting distribution drives on Filaantro.

Thank you for taking the time to read this article. Make sure to share it with all your friends and family members.

Despite becoming the world’s fifth largest economy, India, since the last few years, has been seeing a decline in its Global Hunger Index ranking. India currently stands at the 107th position out of the total 123 countries, lower to its neighbouring countries such as Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal. With the current scenario, India will not be able to achieve the target of zero hunger by 2030. NFHS-5 (2019-21) indicates a rising level of anaemia in the population and says that a third of children are stunted and more than a fifth are wasted.

6 Deadly Mistakes to Avoid in a Marriage

The phrase "marriage is a bed of roses" paints an image of the perfect union. But let's be honest: every rose has its thorns. While the wedding ceremony might be all about glittering ensembles and lavish celebrations, the journey of marriage requires navigating through a labyrinth of joys, sorrows, adjustments, and challenges.

Just like any journey, there are certain deadly mistakes you'd want to avoid to ensure your marriage remains a beautiful journey and not a road filled with potholes.

According to a study conducted by the National Family Health Survey (NFHS), it was found that around 47% of divorces can be attributed to the presence of one or more of the deadly mistakes commonly made in marriages. Let's decode the 6 deadly mistakes to avoid in a marriage.

1. Misaligned Priorities: Neglecting the Foundation

Neglecting the foundation of marriage by having misaligned priorities can weaken the bond. Many of the best matrimonial sites for second marriage emphasizes the importance of shared values and goals. Thus, it is important to prioritize open communication, quality time, and mutual support to ensure a strong foundation for a lasting and fulfilling relationship between you and your partner.

2. Trust Erosion: Breaking the Sacred Thread

Ask any happy couple, and they will tell you that trust is the cornerstone of a successful marriage. Actions that erode trust, like betrayal or dishonesty, can irreparably damage the relationship. Building trust requires honesty, reliability, and transparency. Remarriage matrimonial sites stress the significance of trust in second marriages, fostering an environment of openness and commitment.

3. Emotional Neglect: Starving the Heart

Emotional neglect can starve a marriage of vitality, intimacy, and long-term happiness. Ignoring emotional needs, dismissing feelings, or failing to provide adequate support can create significant distance and foster feelings of resentment.

All marriage gurus encourage emotional connection through active listening, empathy, and affectionate gestures to nurture a thriving partnership.

4. Growing Apart: Drifting in Different Directions

Every marriage requires effort and commitment to grow together. Neglecting shared interests, personal growth, or failing to invest a considerable amount of time and energy can lead to drifting apart. Many remarriage matrimonial sites in India advocate for shared activities, regular communication, and a willingness to adapt to foster a strong and fulfilling marriage.

5. Lack of Conflict Resolution: Igniting Unresolved Fires

Avoiding conflict or failing to resolve disagreements can lead to resentment and unresolved issues. Effective conflict resolution involves active listening, empathy, and finding mutually beneficial solutions. The best matrimonial site for second marriage promotes healthy communication and problem-solving skills to prevent lingering conflicts from damaging the relationship.

6. Intimacy Drought: Neglecting the Physical and Emotional Connection

Neglecting intimacy, both physical and emotional, can lead to a drought in the marriage. Many remarriage matrimonial sites for second marriage emphasize the importance of nurturing intimacy through open communication, affectionate gestures, and quality time together. Cultivating a deep and satisfying emotional and physical connection fosters a thriving and fulfilling marriage.

To conclude, in the journey of marriage, avoiding the deadly mistakes that can derail the love between partners is essential. Neglecting the foundation, eroding trust, emotional neglect, growing apart, unresolved conflicts, and intimacy drought are pitfalls that must be recognized and addressed. By prioritizing shared values, building trust, nurturing emotional connection, growing together, resolving conflicts, and fostering intimacy, you and your partner can build a successful marriage life.

World Health Day 2023 will focus on the theme, ‘Health for All,’ marking the 75th anniversary of the World Health Organization (WHO). It provides an opportunity to come together and motivate action to address health challenges that the world is facing today.  

In India, one of the major health challenges is malnutrition in children. The recent NFHS- 5 (National Family Health Survey) data presents a grim picture of the nutritional status of children in India. We need to act now to prevent malnutrition in children. The key indicators of child nutrition; stunting (low height for age), wasting (low weight for height) and underweight (low weight for age) in children below 5 years of age show a dip suggesting acute or chronic child under-nutrition. Failure to act now to end malnutrition will have devastating long-term consequences for children, human capital and national economy. World Bank states that 1% loss in adult height due to childhood stunting is associated with a 1.4% loss in economic productivity. Globally, the cost of malnutrition is estimated at US$3.5 trillion per year, or US$500 per person.
