This manuscript describes a pedagogical proposal for the adherence to healthy eating in sixth-grade schoolchildren. The reason for the design lies in the high prevalence of overweight and obesity together with a growing current sedentary lifestyle, aspects that constitute a serious public health problem worldwide with an upward trend and pandemic character. Therefore, we carried out six sessions in which schoolchildren participated in different activities for the knowledge of a varied and balanced Mediterranean diet, as well as for its reflection and practice outside the educational center that allows a greater didactic transposition between the school and the educational center. We are born with a body and it has to last us in good condition for the rest of our lives. For this reason, physical activity practiced regularly and in the appropriate way, together with dietary control, is the best tool available today for the promotion of health and quality of life of schoolchildren. In this sense, acquiring such habits from a young age is not of little importance: It is of absolute importance (Aristotle 384-322 BC). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
