Health Minister Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa said Sri Lanka needs a targeted national nutrition policy that focuses on disease prevention, health promotion and quality of life, rather than treatment alone. Speaking at a session organized by the Sri Lanka Medical Nutrition Association and the Sri Lanka College of Nutrition Physicians, he said nutrition should be integrated into policy formulation and hospital service planning, with food choices, labeling, market access and healthy habits playing a major role in public health outcomes.adaderana
