    Eating habits by students are incredibly important due to a variety of reasons.

    Firstly, maintaining
    healthy eating habits is crucial as it directly impacts their academic performance and ability to stay
    active and focused in their studies. Numerous studies have shown a positive correlation between
    proper nutrition and cognitive function, suggesting that students who consume a balanced diet are
    more likely to exhibit better memory retention, increased concentration, and improved problem-
    solving skills (Dye et al., 2015; Singh et al., 2018).

    Secondly, the impact of stress on students cannot be underestimated. With the mounting academic
    pressures, extracurricular activities, and social demands, students often experience high levels of
    stress. Proper nutrition plays a significant role in managing stress levels. Certain nutrients, such as
    omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, have been associated with reduced symptoms of anxiety and
    depression (Jacka et al., 2017). Conversely, poor dietary choices, such as excessive consumption of
    sugary snacks or caffeine, can exacerbate stress levels and hinder students' ability to cope
    effectively.

    Lastly, maintaining healthy eating habits is essential for keeping students energetic throughout the
    day. Proper nutrition provides the necessary fuel for the body, ensuring that students have the energy
    to engage in physical activities, participate in class discussions, and perform well in their academic
    pursuits. Diets rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins have been linked to
    enhanced energy levels and improved overall well-being (Gomez-Pinilla, 2008).

    In summary, recognizing the significance of eating habits among students is crucial for their academic
    success and overall well-being. By promoting healthy eating practices, educational institutions can
    contribute to students' cognitive abilities, stress management, and sustained energy levels, ultimately
    fostering an optimal learning environment.
