HUMAN POPULATION

In my previous reflection, I discussed an issue of unhealthy food which is nowadays are most people common favourite food. Healthy lifestyle is important in order for human well being includes regular exercise and proper eating habits. Healthy eating habits can promote growth and keep people healthy across the lifespan. Some of the countries recorded high mortality rate caused by poor nutrient food. Hence, unhealthy and bad eating habits can potentially cause health problem, complications or even worst lead to death. So, here I came out with the idea to solve this issue. I thought that it would be easy and practical if there is online food store that provide variety of nutritious food.

My online food store is named as Nutritious Food. There would be a vertical menu bar at the left side of the website. The foods categories provided in this websites are divided into four which are ready to eat food, snacks, drinks and combo deals. The figure below shows a draft of Nutritious Hut website. Customer can simply click on the food image to know the information; prices and ingredients of the foods. To see all the products listed in that particular category, click see more button and all the products would display. 

Other than that, there would be quick, simple yet nutritious meal recipes provided in this websites. The recipes are divided into four; breakfast, heavy meals, snacks and drinks. Last but not list, the main highlights of this websites are Hello Dietitians! Nutritious Hut offer a service or platform for people to directly ask the certified dietitians in charged regarding any issue or questions regarding food intake or any related topics. They will reply and guide people with some advices and occasionally monitor the customers' progress.

Collaborator:

In this social innovation, I would like to have a collaboration with two parties that would highly contribute in the efficacy of my project.

1. Malaysian Dietitians’ Association (MDA)

By establishing partnership and collaboration, MDA will assists our team to reach respective dietetic professionals and most credible nutrition information. Likewise, with the corporate support to the MDA's strategic plan and their commitment in promoting healthy living and evidence-based practice, MDA can increase its capacity to deliver accurate, practical, and up-to-date nutrition information to our team and support  nutrition education programs and promote awareness. As the most trustable nutrition information providers, MDA members would take on duty to provide services by answering all the questions asked by our cstomers related to nutrition food intake. They evenly would particularly continue monitoring professional development of the customers.

2. Nutrition Society of Malaysia 

This society would assist our team in choosing particular foods to be listed on this online food store. Only foods with preferable nutrition content would be sold to ensure all the food products are highly recommended to help people obtain the truly healthy foods and obviously not for marketing purposes.
