Abstract

Early nutrition intervention in infants and adolescents is necessary to prevent or counteract the health effects of overweight and bad eating habits. High nutritional quality is an important period of childhood and adolescence for diet because physical needs of nutrients are higher than energy requirements. In addition, many core eating habits and behavioral patterns have been developed that can last a whole lifetime. Schools can provide an important opportunity for retirement, because they provide the most effective method for reaching a large number of people, youth, school staff, family and community members. Healthy food and improved nutrition have high priority in each school subject, has a positive effect on the good condition of the children, and then increased learning ability and academic performance.
