Having a healthy body is a goal everyone strives for, and it can be achieved through a healthy lifestyle. The Faculty of Dentistry at Universitas Gadjah Mada (FKG UGM) held a healthy walk event on Wednesday, 9 August 2024. This event was attended by lecturers, administrative staff, and students. The walking route started from the FKG UGM campus and led to Wisdom Park UGM.

Tjut Intan Permatasari, Sp.PM, Head of the Health Promotion University FKG UGM (HPU FKG UGM), stated that this event aimed to promote a healthy lifestyle among the academic community. “Today, we just completed a healthy walk of approximately 60 minutes. This is one simple way to maintain good health,” she said.
In addition to exercising, a balanced nutritional intake is also necessary for maintaining a healthy body. After completing the walk, participants enjoyed a breakfast that included beef soup, white rice, tofu, tempeh, eggs, and warm tea, all prepared to meet the body’s nutritional needs.
drg. Margareta Rinastiti, M.Kes., Sp.KG.(K)., Ph.D., Vice Dean for Finance, Assets, and Human Resources, explained that the breakfast menu provided met nutritional adequacy standards. “This breakfast menu contains carbohydrates, protein, and fiber, which are essential for the body,” she explained.
