This study investigates the influence of food lifestyle on the health and well-being of residents in SKBB Lower Bicutan, Taguig City in the Philippines. The research employed descriptive-quantitative method to analyse food habits, beverage intake, and nutritional welfare among community members. The sample comprised predominantly of females and adolescents, many living below the poverty line with limited educational attainment. Key findings indicate prevalent health issues such as heart disease and respiratory problems, alongside common use of over-the-counter medications. Smoking and alcohol consumption patterns were also examined. Dietary habits revealed a preference for rice, bread, pasta, and a high consumption of coffee. Despite existing community programmes like feeding programme and "Operation Timbang Plus", the study underscores the need for more comprehensive and targeted nutrition and wellness initiatives. The research culminates in recommendations for further community engagement and assessment to develop effective nutrition and wellness strategies, enhancing the overall health profile of the community.
