The dietitian Edita Gavelienė mentioned the behavior of the parents, which is completely inappropriate: so do not be surprised to find sweets in the child’s backpack.

The host of television programs, the interpreter Vidas Bareikis, was convinced of the same and shared his knowledge with the students of the Rinkis sveikiau school, according to a press release. He visited Telšiai, where he met with the Krantas progymnasium students, and the lesson for them was taught online from Vilnius by the founders of the school: Rimi Lietuva, food technologist and dietitian dr. Edit Gavelienė.

All members of the family should follow the same nutritional principles.

“Ordinary family gatherings at the table, where beautiful and pleasant communication and unexplained and unresolved family problems are a must if children are growing up in the family and want to choose and eat in a way that benefits their health. A shared lunch or dinner for a child shows that eating is important, that it is one of the essential provisions for a healthy diet ”, says Dr. Edita Gavelienė. According to her, it is understandable that it is not possible to sit together three times a day: “It is enough to do it at least several times a week. It is important for the child to see an example of the focus on food and feeding. “

The dietitian also shared an example of my parents’ opposite behavior: This is absolutely inappropriate behavior, especially when there are teenagers in the family. It shows the child that hiding and cheating is possible, and that he can do the same. If you really want a bun, don’t hide it while you eat it. If the opposite is done, it is not surprising that parents find candy wrappers in fifth grade, ”says Dr. E. Gavelienė.

She emphasizes that the same rules should apply to all family members so that children learn and adhere to the principles of healthy eating in the future. “I am faced with situations where a family member, a child, is obese and needs to eat in a certain way. Meanwhile, the rest of the family eats a completely different meal. For a child to be healthy, the whole family must eat a healthy diet ”, emphasizes Dr. E. Gavelienė. According to her, even if a child in the same family suffers from malnutrition and another suffers from obesity, it is possible to unbalance:

Bareikis Lives: Food can change a lot

Lives Bareikis, the television host and performer, shared the principles that help to eat healthy in the school lesson “Choose Healthy.” “I used to need food just to ease my stomach pain. I didn’t pay much attention to that. However, when I started exercising more intensively, 3-4 years ago, I developed a diet plan, which includes five meals a day: breakfast, lunch, dinner, lunch, and dinner in between. There is little or no sugar in that plan; it is replaced by some natural sweeteners, honey. The plan contains very few carbohydrates, the kind of unhealthy carbohydrates that abound in floury meals. It does not contain alcohol and the rule is not to eat three hours before bedtime. “

According to a well-known artist, according to this plan, sports achievements can be much better and require minimal costs to achieve. “People don’t even realize that following a proper diet plan and eating healthy, just 20 minutes of exercise a day is enough, a little walk and you can have super health, a great looking body, because food determines most of the results. It seems to me that the saying that food should be medicine and not the other way around is very true. Food can change a lot, ”says Vidas Bareikis.
