   Introduction 
     Most of the organized studies of nutrition have 
     been confined to the 20th century.
     Although there was evidence of long-standing 
     curiosity about nutrition.
     Hippocrates,  the  father  of  medicine(400  BC) 
     considered food as one universal nutrient.
     Antonie Lauret Lavoisier(18th century, a French 
     chemist) is known as father of nutrition.
     In  Islam  there  are  many  verses  of  the  Quran 
     and Hadeeths in food and nutrition.
     Some of these fact has just been proved by the 
     modern science and some not.
     Nutrition has played a significant role 
      in our life, even from before our birth.
     Many people are concerned only with 
      food  that  relives  their  hunger  or 
      satisfies their appetite .
     But in many times, these foods don't 
      supply  their  bodies  with  all  the 
      component of good nutrition.
