Ayurvedic Consultants from the Bal Rog and Shalakya Tantra departments of D.Y. Patil School of Ayurveda, conducted a free medical check-up in our school for students of grades III to V on September 23, 2016.
A lecture was also delivered by Dr. Ashwini Shitre on ‘Food and Hygiene’ for students of grades VI to VIII. Emphasis was laid on maintaining proper hygiene by always washing hands before eating which would have a direct impact on health. Students were also given advice on how to restrict their intake of junk food, as the nutrition gained during adolescence goes a long way in keeping their bodies healthy. Students actively participated in the lecture and demonstration, and answered questions put forth by the doctors.
