00:20Hundreds of students from public and private schools came together for the Eat Well, Live Well Youth Summit.
00:30It was led by a private company that came from Japan and has been in the Philippines for more than 6 decades.
00:37They are helping more healthy youths by providing them with the right nutrition and a balanced lifestyle.
00:44Because we believe that the youth holds great power in nation building.
00:49We believe that by educating, engaging and equipping them with the right information and support from government and private organizations,
00:59we can prepare them for a better and brighter future for all Filipinos.
01:05The Department of Education of the Youth Summit is supported.
01:08According to the DepEd, the summit is timely, especially as their campaign against malnutrition in students continues.

01:21So, we know for a fact that learning will only take place whenever our learners are healthy, mentally, emotionally and of course physically.
01:35It's very important what we eat because it will reflect how and what we become.
01:42A forum was also held where the Department of Agriculture discussed food loss and food waste.
01:49According to the DA, the Youth Summit was held this November in celebration of National Rice Awareness Month.
01:56We are campaigning for a responsible consumption of rice.
02:03Not only rice, but also other aspects of food.
