How do primary school students match nutritious breakfast, lunch and dinner?
Dietary collocation of primary school students: 7- 12-year-old children are in the stage of rapid development, especially in the late primary school, which requires higher nutrition, more attention in classroom education, more mental work than before entering school, and less play activities. Therefore, we should pay attention to the following points in this period: (1) The diet should be diversified, adequate and balanced. According to the season and market supply situation, the main and non-staple foods should be matched with each other in thickness, with dry and wet meat, and more milk and bean products should be supplied to ensure adequate supply of calcium. (2) Arrange three meals reasonably, and add a snack to the three meals. The energy distribution of three meals can be breakfast 20%-25%, lunch 35%, snacks 10%- 15% and dinner 30%. Breakfast must be rich and of high quality, and you should eat well. If the nutrition supply for breakfast is insufficient, primary school students often feel hungry after the second class, which affects their attention in class. Generally speaking, it is advisable to provide a certain amount of meat food (50- 100g), such as 1 egg, 1 bottle of milk or soybean milk, floss meat, ham, sauce meat, etc. And increase snacks 1 time between classes to supply sufficient nutrition and energy, which is beneficial to mental work. Lunch should also be given full attention. If schools or families can provide children with quality lunches, their physical fitness will be greatly improved. Dinner is usually eaten at home, and dual-income families often have the most abundant dinner. But from a nutritional point of view, dinner should not be too greasy and overeating, otherwise it will affect sleep and rest. It is best not to eat after dinner. (3) Cultivate good eating habits and pay attention to food hygiene. Wash your hands before and after eating, and wash the fruits and vegetables with detergent and water before eating. Develop a good habit of not being partial to food, not picky about food and not eating snacks.
