. On July 3rd, the 2015 project launch of the "China Health Knowledge Communication Incentive Program (Fruit and Vegetable Nutrition and Dietary Balance)" supported by Jiapei China was held in Beijing, and all parties jointly called on the public to increase their intake of fruits and vegetables, maintain a balanced diet, and achieve "half a kilo of fruit and vegetables, every day is fruit and vegetable day".
the latest Report on Nutrition and Chronic Diseases in China (2015), the death rate from chronic diseases accounted for 86.6% of all deaths in 2012. At the same time, the nutritional status of the population's diet improved overall during the decade, but there were also relatively inadequate fruits and vegetables and excessive fat intake, of which the average dietary fat ratio was more than 30%. An unbalanced diet increases the risk of overweight, obesity and chronic diseases.. Professor Yu Kang, vice chairman of the Science and Technology Committee of the Chinese Academy of Nutrition, said there was plenty of evidence that adequate amounts of vegetables and fruits were good for health, including weight control, antioxidant supplementation, blood lipid control, blood pressure, reducing the risk of malignant tumors, and promoting and protecting intelligence to prevent cognitive decline. In particular, fresh fruits and vegetables for the digestive tract malignant tumors, etc. have a very large preventive effect. The relevant data show that the current intake of vegetables and fruits below the recommended amount, but also slightly decreased, need attention. According to data released by the World Health Organization, 19 percent of gastrointestinal cancers, 31 percent of isoemia heart disease and 11 percent of strokes are associated with low fruit and vegetable intake. Therefore, it is particularly important to increase the intake of fruits and vegetables and maintain a balanced diet.
Yukang also stressed that the intake of fruits and vegetables should be considered in terms of quantity, type and color, that is, 200-500 grams of vegetables (≥3 kinds) per day, fruit 200-400 grams (≥2 kinds), half of which should be dark. And pay attention to fruit and vegetable intake at the same time, to pay attention to the overall dietary patterns, fruits and vegetables into a balanced diet to play a role, any neglect or superstitious fruit and vegetable nutrition practices will harm health.
Yu Renwen, a clinical senior nutritionist at Beijing Military District General Hospital, said family meal habits affect each other and parents and housewives should help families and children develop healthy eating habits to benefit the family. Yu Renwen said that fruits and vegetables are rich in essential nutrients, especially vitamin C and dietary fiber, but also to maintain human health, prevention of chronic diseases of important nutrients. At the same time, choose low-energy, nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables, such as the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which show that golden kiwis can be about 10 times more nutritious than apples and watermelons.
Xu Weisheng, an associate researcher at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Institute of Nutrition and Health, said fruits and vegetables are different and cannot be replaced by each other.
it is understood that the new edition of the Chinese Dietetic Reference Intake DRIs issued by the Chinese Academy of Nutrition has increased the recommended intake for the prevention of chronic noncommunicable diseases, for example, due to the antioxidant effect of vitamin C on the cardiovascular system, recommended that healthy people consume about 100 mg per day, while the recommended intake for adults to prevent chronic diseases is 200 mg.
ZESPRI® Jiapei China Health Communication Manager Wang Wei said Jiapei has been concerned about the physical and mental health of Chinese residents, advocating to increase the intake of vegetables and fruits, to maintain a balanced diet of public welfare activities. And hope that by supporting the "every day is fruit and vegetable day" concept, so that more people can fall in love with fruits and vegetables, to maintain a balanced diet.
