The purpose of China Student Nutrition Day
Guo Jiyi, vice president of China Student Nutrition and Health Promotion Association, said that statistics show that the average height of China teenagers aged114 is 2-3cm shorter than that of their Japanese counterparts, mainly because China teenagers have an unbalanced diet and lack of vitamins and trace elements such as calcium, iron and zinc, which leads to malnutrition.
According to statistics, the malnutrition of children in the western region is more serious than that in the eastern region. The proportion of children whose height and weight are not up to standard is 20%, and the proportion of children with growth retardation is as high as 30%. Experts believe that it is urgent to publicize and popularize the knowledge of nutrition science and food hygiene, so as to eliminate the "nutrition blindness" in urban and rural areas of China.
