Opening column: In order to better publicize the knowledge of disease prevention and spread health A hygienic lifestyle, Linyi Center for Disease Control and Prevention, together with Dazhong.com and Poster News, launched a short video popular science column “Linyi Disease Control Online”, which focuses on disease prevention and control, public health, food safety and other fields, and is scientifically interpreted and authoritative by disease control experts Speak up, answer questions, and build health and safety barriers together.
For a long time, the Food Hygiene Section of Linyi Center for Disease Control and Prevention has been responsible for formulating the city’s food safety risk monitoring work plans and programs, and organizing the implementation, supervision and evaluation. Undertake foodborne disease monitoring and participate in on-site epidemiological investigation and disposal of food safety incidents. Undertake relevant business training, technical guidance and other work.
On the morning of April 26, the Chinese Nutrition Society officially released the “Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022)”. Zuo Yafan, a physician in charge of the Food Hygiene Department of the Linyi Center for Disease Control and Prevention, reminded that the core recommendations in the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022) have been increased from six to eight in the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2016), which is very different from the previous guidelines. It is very different, mainly in the following aspects:
As can be seen from the picture above, the 2016 edition of the “Guide” states that “food is diverse, and cereals are “Main” was changed to “Diverse food, reasonable collocation”.
Except for breast milk for infants under 6 months of age, there is no natural food that can satisfy the energy and all nutrients required by the human body. Not only should we pay attention to the diverse intake of food, we should also pay attention to the reasonable variety of food. Matching, including thickness matching, meat and vegetable matching, color matching, etc., is the only way to meet nutritional needs. Cereal-based is an important feature of a balanced diet, and it is also one of the principles that must be adhered to in a reasonable mix. This revision is not to no longer insist on cereals, but to emphasize the overall role of dietary patterns and highlight the importance of reasonable matching.
The latest version of the 2022 “Guidelines” adds “eating regularly and drinking enough water”, paying more attention to whether people plan their meals regularly and quantitatively and drink small amounts of water several times a day.
Data in the past 20 years show that the proportion of Chinese residents who eat three meals a day has decreased, the proportion of eating out has increased significantly, and the consumption rate of snacks has increased significantly. Excessive intake of oil and salt may increase the risk of overweight, obesity and diabetes.
In addition to food, water is an important part of the diet, but it is easily overlooked. The phenomenon of insufficient drinking water is common in my country, with 2/3 of the residents having insufficient drinking water. Drinking too little water can reduce cognitive and physical performance, and increase the risk of developing urinary problems. This prompts us to pay special attention to “regular meals and adequate water intake”.
With the deepening of the concept of a balanced diet, people are paying more and more attention to the calories and nutrition of food. Therefore, the latest version of the 2022 “Guide” has added “can cook, choose, and read labels”.
Food is the material basis for human beings to obtain nutrition, survive and develop. Diets should be planned at every stage of life. People need to understand the nutritional characteristics of various foods, choose fresh, nutrient-dense foods, and learn to choose healthy packaged foods by comparing food nutrition labels.
Cooking is an important part of a healthy diet. Everyone should learn to cook, prepare three meals a day, practice balanced meals, and enjoy nutrition and deliciousness. If you dine out or choose takeaway food, you should buy it on demand, pay attention to the appropriate amount and the combination of meat and vegetables, and take the initiative to make health appeals.
In the latest edition of the 2022 “Guide”, special emphasis is placed on “sharing meals with public chopsticks”.
Adhering to hygienic measures such as serving chopsticks and spoons, dividing meals or serving meals to avoid the occurrence and spread of foodborne diseases is of great significance to safeguarding public health.
According to the changes in the latest edition of the “Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2022)”, Zuo Yafan reminded the general public to reasonably change the dietary structure according to their own health needs to help the development of healthy Linyi.
