Your health in your food" forum and exhibition for the disabled.

The two-day forum aims at raising public awareness about important food sources and daily nutrients intake to provide full health benefits for those with special needs, he noted.
The ministry also spares no effort in supporting national projects that contribute to helping and serving the citizens and residents, especially the disabled, he said, adding the Kuwait was one of the first Arab countries to implement the food safety system in 2000
