First, the nutritional status of college students
At present, college students are generally malnourished because of high tuition fees, increased other expenses and bad eating habits, such as skipping breakfast, being picky about food and being partial to food, and saving a full meal on Sunday.
Second, the role of reasonable nutrition in promoting college students' health and study
Reasonable nutrition is closely related to human growth and development, labor ability, life extension and disease prevention, treatment and rehabilitation.
1, reasonable nutrition can promote physical development.
Food is the most important material basis for the growth and development of college students. The growth and development of organisms, life activities, mental work and physical work all depend on the metabolism of substances in the body. In the process of material metabolism, the human body must constantly ingest a certain amount of food from the outside, so as to promote growth and development, enhance physical fitness, enhance immune function, prevent diseases, and improve work efficiency and exercise ability.
Reasonable nutrition means that the body can ingest all the nutrients necessary to maintain health, and the proportion of various nutrients meets the needs of the human body. Lack of nutrients, or unbalanced intake of various nutrients, unreasonable dietary structure, etc. It will not only cause growth retardation, but also lead to various acute and chronic malnutrition and various nutritional deficiencies. Therefore, reasonable nutrition and dietary balance can better promote the healthy growth of college students.
2. Reasonable nutrition can improve memory and learning efficiency.
Reasonable nutrition can improve the activity ability of human brain and enhance people's computing ability, memory ability, judgment ability, action ability and vision. The brain is the most active organ in the human body. Although it weighs only about 2% of the human body, the energy consumed by the brain accounts for 20% of the total energy of the whole body. Therefore, reasonable nutrition plays an important role in brain health care.
Third, the principle of healthy eating for college students.

Four. Countermeasures and suggestions
1. Promote nutrition packages in schools.
Speaking of nutrition packages, the canteen is the main place for students to eat. Students at school, I think when it comes to nutrition, we should vigorously promote nutrition packages. The main reason is that many people don't understand or have no time to understand a lot of nutrition knowledge, so dieticians need to play a subtle role in the matching of nutritious meals. At the same time, we should also consider the needs of taste and price. Through the combination of breakfast, the transaction time is reduced, it is convenient to carry and the breakfast rate is improved.
2, increase the flavor of the canteen food
The meals in the canteen have diversified tastes, which can meet the tastes of students in different regions. Students can eat happily in the canteen and their nutritional status can be improved.
3, food diversification, mainly cereals, thick and thin collocation.
Grain is the main body of China's traditional diet and the main source of human energy. Cereals, including rice, flour and miscellaneous grains, mainly provide carbohydrates, protein, dietary fiber and B vitamins. Sticking to a grain-based diet is to keep the good tradition of China's diet and avoid the disadvantages of a high-energy, high-fat and low-carbohydrate diet. In addition, we should pay attention to the matching of thickness and often eat some coarse and coarse grains. Don't grind rice and wheat too fine, or most of the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients and dietary fiber contained in the grain surface will be lost to the bran.
4. Eat more fruits, potatoes and dark vegetables. An apple a day is recommended.
Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber. Especially potatoes, are rich in starch, dietary fiber, various vitamins and minerals. A diet rich in vegetables, fruits and potatoes plays a very important role in maintaining cardiovascular health and enhancing disease resistance.
5, often eat livestock, fish and lean meat.
Animal foods such as fish, poultry, eggs and lean meat are good sources of high-quality protein and fat-soluble vitamins and minerals. The amino acid composition of animal protein is more suitable for human needs, and the content of lysine is higher, which is beneficial to supplement the midfoot of lysine in plant protein. Chicken, fish, rabbit meat, beef and other animal foods have high protein content and low fat content, and the energy produced is much lower than that of pork. We should strongly advocate eating these foods and appropriately reduce the proportion of pork.
5, eat snacks properly, eat less convenience food, do not eat barbecue, limit midnight snack.
If you feel hungry at night because of lack of energy, you should supplement digestible foods such as porridge and bread, or you can add a small amount of fruit and milk and eat less instant noodles.
