to fulfil their daily tasks. Having the health promotions can
more positively impact over the behaviours of the health of
an individual. Through the help of this artefact, it can provide
awareness towards the old age public so that they can
effectively know about the causative reasons which can
negatively impact over their well-being due to lack of healthy
eating.

age can aid in maintaining of the well-being as well as in
reducing the onset of the chronic illness. It can particularly
