Answer 2

Answer:

No, everyone can not afford a balanced diet, even the poor.

Explanation:

• According to a recent Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) analysis, hundreds of millions of Indians who live over the $1.90 purchasing power parity (PPP) per person per day international poverty level cannot afford to eat a diet that is both healthful and nutrient-dense.
• This investigation reveals that the problem of poor nutrition in India is primarily due to the high cost of healthy diets, rather than a lack of knowledge about nutrition or cultural preferences.
• Most Indians lack the financial means to maintain a healthy diet.
• First, a poor person, who is classified as having an income of $1.9 per day, can afford the energy-sufficient diet, or eating solely cereals to meet their calorie requirements, which costs around 80 cents a day in South Asia.
• In other words, the underprivileged in India and other South Asian nations can receive their calories by limiting themselves to wheat or rice.
• Second, a diet that provides enough nutrients costs $2.12 per day.
• More than the international poverty level, indeed. Even then, a person whose income is barely above the poverty line would not be able to afford a diet high in nutrients if she spent all of her daily expenses on food (ignoring fuel, transportation, rent, medications, and other expenses).
• Of course, no one can live off of what they earn in food alone.
• Third, a balanced food costs $4.07 per day, which is more than twice the global poverty threshold.
• In other words, a healthy diet is completely out of reach for anyone who earn even double the federal poverty level.
• What exactly is this nutritious diet? It includes 100 g of milk, 100 g of vegetables and fruit each, 5 g of oil, 30 g of cereal, 30 g of legumes, 50 g of beef, poultry, or fish, and 50 g of eggs daily. In other words, a meal that is balanced and healthful without being overly so.
