I recently read a book called “What Our Children Should Eat” and benefited a lot from it. The book was written by Mr. Zhao Lin, the chief expert of health education of the Ministry of Health. The quote on the cover is very striking: Food is good for people, but food also kills people. The first chapter talks about the dangers of foreign fast food for children – obesity, precocious puberty, arteriosclerosis, carcinogenic substances, etc.. Obesity alone can induce more than 100 kinds of diseases. The author says that foreign fast food is the worst thing that China has imitated from the United States. The author says that when he sees so many Chinese children drinking carbonated drinks and eating fried chicken legs and French fries at McDonald’s and KFC, his heart aches for tears, and he cannot bear to see the flowers of his country being destroyed in this way. He proposed that the most beneficial drink for children’s healthy development is – plain water, not milk, juice, etc. He advocates educating children to adhere to the traditional Chinese diet, as early as 2,000 years ago, the classical works of Chinese medicine put forward the basic principles of “five grains for nourishment, five vegetables for enrichment, five fruits for help, five animals for benefit”, which is still in line with the modern scientific diet concept today. I also learned from this book that ADHD in children is related to the consumption of synthetic colors, that food has four properties: cold, hot, warm and cool, the importance of a balanced diet, the pollution of human food by pesticides and fertilizers, and that food therapy is more important than medical treatment. Shang Hongtao, Department of Spleen and Gastrointestinal Diseases, Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine In the 1970s, the report submitted to Congress by McGovern, chairman of the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Health, pointed out that “the present nutritional problems or nutritional imbalance, overnutrition, nutritional quality, has become an important issue related to the health of the people, millions of Americans stuffed into their stomachs is likely to make them suffer from obesity, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. In a word, it will slowly and fatally”. A 1989 survey by a U.S. agency concluded that the incidence of chronic non-communicable diseases in China was much lower than in developed Western countries, and that this was closely related to the traditional Chinese dietary structure. Unfortunately, in the reform and opening up to learn the advanced technology of the West, but also the introduction of Western food culture, resulting in the proliferation of “foreign fast food, junk food”, “civilization disease” rampant situation, a profound lesson, far-reaching damage. As I think about it, the healthy diet of children is a matter of national development, and it is also the responsibility of educators. Understanding the principles of healthy eating and guiding students with healthy eating concepts in the education process should also be a responsibility of teachers and schools, which is consistent with the school’s philosophy of “laying the foundation for a lifetime. If you do some work from the school level may receive better results, such as publicity gallery, invite relevant experts to the school for teachers and students to give lectures on health and wellness, through the influence of students and then influence each family, is also a matter of great merit.
