Fruit kebabs are a colorful and refreshing snack, perfect for Eid celebrations or any other festive occasion.

To make them, simply thread a variety of fresh fruits, such as oranges, strawberries, grapes, apples, pineapple, and watermelon, onto skewers to create bright, bite-sized treats that both children and adults will enjoy.

For an extra boost of protein and a slightly savory balance, small cubes of cheese, tofu, or a few nuts can be added between the fruit pieces.

These vibrant kebabs are healthy, easy to prepare, and add a cheerful, festive touch to any Eid snack table.

Dark skin patches may sometimes indicate insulin resistance or diabetes.

However, they can also occur for other reasons, so their presence does not necessarily mean you have these conditions.

Obesity is on the menu in this week’s episode of the Nutrition 101 Quiz

Watch the video and check the notes below for further explanation of the answers.

Q1: Obesity is influenced by many factors (as listed in the correct answer), not just diet or willpower. Understanding this helps reduce stigma and supports better health for everyone.

Q2: When you’re under chronic stress, your body releases hormones that can increase appetite, especially for sugary or high-calorie foods, and may also encourage fat storage around your belly.

Q3: Weight gain usually happens gradually. Daily habits, like sugary drinks, snacks, less movement, late-night meals, stress eating, or poor sleep, can quietly add up. While genes and hormones can influence your body, small lifestyle choices over time are often the main factor.

Q4: Crash diets and extreme restrictions may seem like a shortcut, but they often slow down your metabolism, cause muscle loss, trigger hormonal imbalances, and increase cravings, making the weight come back even faster. Consistent, healthy lifestyle habits including balanced meals, regular exercise, and patience are what helps keep excess weight off for good.

You’re not helpless when it comes to your health.

Every meal is a chance to make a choice that supports your body instead of working against it.

You don’t have to change your entire life overnight, but small, consistent changes in your diet can lead to real, lasting improvements.

Your energy, your mood, your strength, your long-term health, they’re all influenced by what you put on your plate.

Take ownership of your choices. Learn what fuels you. Start where you are. Your health is not out of your hands.

Water and your health are on the menu in this week’s episode of the Nutrition 101 Quiz

Watch the video and check the notes below for further explanation of the answers.

Q1:
Water does more than help digest your food, it also removes waste from your body by supporting kidney function and bowel movements, regulates your body temperature through sweating, and helps you maintain healthy skin and hair by keeping your tissues hydrated.

Q2:
Drinking a lot of coffee isn’t a good way to stay hydrated because the caffeine makes you urinate more, which can cause your body to lose water.

Q3:
If clean water isn’t available, it’s important to make it safe before use. Letting water settle, filtering, boiling, and storing it in a covered container help reduce germs and contaminants. Adding salt, however, does not make water safe to drink and should be avoided.

Q4:
Our brain can sometimes confuse thirst with hunger. So when you feel hungry shortly after a meal, your body may actually be asking for water, try drinking a bottle of water first before reaching for more food.
