The BS Nutrition and Dietetics Program of Quirino State University proudly congratulates Ms. Lauren Cas on the successful publication of her book and Kindle eBook:

📖 SALUN-AT ken BANG-AR (Wellness and Relief): A Citrus-Based Dietary Cookbook Reference for Fever and Infection Recovery

This outstanding publication is the culmination of her undergraduate thesis entitled:

"Development of a Citrus-Based Recipe Book as a Dietary Reference for Patients with Fevers and Infections."

Now available in both print and Kindle eBook formats: https://a.co/d/0atxFxPX

SALUN-AT ken BANG-AR (Wellness and Relief) is a thoughtfully crafted nutrition resource that demonstrates the vital role of food in promoting healing and recovery. Developed through research and guided by evidence-based nutrition principles, the cookbook offers 50 easy-to-prepare citrus-based recipes designed to support hydration, nourishment, immune function, and recovery during fever and infection.

Featuring refreshing beverages, comforting soups, nourishing porridges, light meals, healthy snacks, desserts, and recovery blends made from locally available citrus fruits—including calamansi, lemon, orange, dalandan, and pomelo—the cookbook integrates Filipino culinary traditions with sound nutrition science. Each recipe includes step-by-step preparation, nutritional information, serving suggestions, storage recommendations, and evidence-informed recovery notes that make it a valuable dietary reference for patients, caregivers, students, and health professionals.

This remarkable achievement reflects the BS Nutrition and Dietetics Program's commitment to transforming undergraduate research into meaningful scholarly publications that promote health, improve nutrition education, and serve communities beyond the university.

Your work exemplifies how student research can become an accessible and practical resource that contributes to public health and inspires healthier lives through evidence-based nutrition.

Congratulations, Ms. Lauren Cas!
