Why may food that only fills the stomach not be nutritionally adequate?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: क्योंकि उसमें आवश्यक पोषक तत्वों की कमी हो सकती है
Satiety or fullness does not necessarily mean that the body has received adequate nutrition. A food may provide bulk or calories but lack protein, vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, fibre, or other nutrients. A balanced diet must provide sufficient variety and nutrient quality, not merely fill the stomach. Therefore, the possible lack of essential nutrients makes option C correct.
