According to him, having proper diet was paramount on people\u2019s health.<\/p>\n

He underscored the need to capitalise on eating food with much protein like white meat, fish, eggs or milk, among others.<\/p>\n

The medical expert said such kind of food helps in making the body immunity strong as well as ensuring efficiency of the body.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven using food with starch like maize, cassava, potatoes and bananas, among others, makes the body strong and active,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He further asked residents in the district to use a lot of drinking water as well as exercising regularly.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the government\u2019s intention to make sure that people are protected from both communicable and non-communicable diseases,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Bahi Ward Medical Officer, Angelica Mpambwa asked residents to consider all precautionary measures given by doctors and other medical experts.<\/p>\n
