Conclusion
A study found that a lack of food hygiene standards significantly affects human
well-being. Good health is crucial for success and societal satisfaction. A
society that has positive attitudes towards maintaining food quality and safety
can prevent contamination and foodborne illnesses. By emphasizing food
hygiene practices leads to better well-being, reduced risk of disease, improved
immune function, faster recoveries, and longer lifespans. The study aimed to
determine if the community adheres to proper food hygiene practices in daily
life, and the majority continue to practice good food hygiene, indicating a
positive perception of well-being.
