Nourishment plays a very important role in a proper children's development. A diet that is rich in a nutrition is necessary for an optimal physical and mental children's development. A number of children with obesity is constantly increasing, where the age of the child is decreasing. Children's obesity is mainly associated with unhealthy eating habits and lack of exercise. The purpose of the "Monitoring nourishment frequency in obese children and children with physiological weight" study is to determine the nourishment frequency in children with obesity and children with physiological weight. This study is divided into two parts; the theory part and the practical part, where in the first section of the theory part the researcher will discuss main characteristics of school-aged children and also outlines the results from previous studies focusing on school-aged children and their eating habits. The theory part will also focus on main nourishment basics, general principles and recommendations. In the second section the theory part will outline the current review on children's obesity. The practical part of this study used quantitative research technique in form of a questionnaire with aim to collect data regarding nourishment frequency in children. The researcher questioned a sample of 20 children that were divided into two equal samples. The first sample included 10 children with optimal weight according to the Body Mass Index (BMI) calculation and the second sample included 10 children with obesity issues that was also determined by the Body Mass Index (BMI) calculation. After data analysis the researcher determined that the main issues in children's obesity are irregular eating habits. Another factor that has significant influence on children's obesity was lack of physical exercise, where children prefer to spend their free time passively. Significant role plays also a fast food and soft drink consumption by children on a regular basis.

Janečková, Karolína ; Marádová, Eva (advisor) ; Kovaříková, Miroslava (referee)
TITLE: Awareness of students selected secondary schools on the issue orthorexia AUTHOR: Bc. Karolína Janečková DEPARTMENT: Pedagogy department SUPERVISOR: PaedDr. Eva Marádová, CSc. ABSTRACT: The topic of my dissertation is orthorexia nervosa, one of the modern eating disorders, and the impact of a Czech school on its development. The aim of this dissertation is to identify what knowledge about orthorexia issues the secondary medical school students have, what is their opinion on eating disorders, and to suggest a sample lesson focusing on this problem. To prove this fact, a quantitative research through a questionnaire has been used. This research was implemented in selected secondary medical schools and grammar schools. The results clearly indicate that students do not have sufficient knowledge about orthorexia and that the difference in the knowledge of medical students at secondary schools and grammar schools is negligible, although the composition of their diet is more concerned with secondary medical school students. In view of the fact of these and other findings, a draft of a sample lesson focusing on the issue of eating disorders and orthorexia has been developed. KEY WORDS: Orthorexia nervosa, eating disorders, Health education, excessive interests in healthy diet, diets, nourishment.
Nourishment of the czech aristocracy in period before Bílá hora and contemporary medical literature
Měrková, Jana ; Šedivá Koldinská, Marie (advisor) ; Zilynská, Blanka (referee)
(in English) The current thesis on Nourishment of the czech aristocracy in period before Bílá Hora and contemporary medical literature focuses on two main topics: dining and medicine. Today, both could be included under one label, which is nutrition. The thesis can be divided into two parts. The first one, on the topic of cuisine/dining of noblemen, introduces their diet, habits and provides a few examples of period recipes. The second one presents overview of books that addressed the issue of dining and cuisine at that time. This part also includes personal and literary profiles of several personalities whose writings contributed to this area. A link between these two parts is a chapter on cuisine from the perspective of physicians. In writing the thesis I relied mostly on two sources: literature on lifestyle and historiographic literature. The latter focuses on cuisine from an everyday life perspective without the medical point of view. The objective of the thesis is to show that cuisine, or nutrition is not only a matter of modern age, but it had its place in the examined period as well.
Nutrition as primary prevention of preschool children
HLÍZOVÁ, Veronika
The subject of my bachelor project is following: "Nutrition as primary prevention of preschool children". Nutrition, as an important determinant of health, influence the state of health of the organism significantly. On one hand, it could be the nourishment what can cause a negative impact on our health and support an emergence of variety of diseases, primarily those with noninfectious origin. On the other hand, nutrition could act as a prevention for all of these diseases (1). The most unpropitious result of these diseases belongs to cardiovascular and tumorous illnesses, which are the most common cause of death in the Czech Republic. These already mentioned diseases are not typical for preschool children, however, the cruicial factor is that the appeal to nourishment as a primary prevention since this age could decreased the prevalence of these diseases in posterior age (2). Childhood is the time when all habits, and especially eating habits, are learned, when bone tissue is founded, and the organism is intesively growing, which is important because it ifluence the state of health not only in childhood, but certainly in adulthood (3). Nourishment is related to development of illnesses so typical for childhood. The example is obesity; its prevalence constantly increases hand to hand with a risk of development of other very serious diseases, such as above mentioned cardiovascular illnesses or Diabetes Mellitus II. (4). This paper is devided to a theoretical and a practical part. In the theoretical part, firstly, there are explained several basic terms regarding to the main theme of this paper. Forth, it devote to the overall energy intake and also to specific macronutrients and micronutrients including their recommended daily dose for preschool children and the risks threatening when a deficit or an abundance of these nutrients occure. Next chapters deal with individual parts of food pyramid and with a composition of single dishes consumed during the day. Included are also informations about drinking regime and the negative impact of sweetened drinks on health of the organism. The penultimate part decribes an influence of family on children's nourishment because it is the parents who plays the major part on their children's eating habits (5). The last area, included in the theoretical part, deals with problems of diseases based on faulty diet occuring in preschool- aged children. The practical part deals with a qualitative research. The goal of my research was to map out the eating habits by preschool children. The following questions were chosen: 1. What informations about priciples of healthy eating have mothers of the surveyed file? 2. What foodstuff, in view of racional children nourishment, do the children consume? 3. What is the eating regime of this surveyed file in comparison to principles of healthy nourishment? The data collection was done by a form of semistructured interviews; these were realized with mothers of preschool children attending a kindergarten in Kaplice. In total, 14 interviews were performed. The realized interviews were transcribed in to a written form and then coded and categorized with a method called "paper and pencil." From results ensue that the majority of mothers has correct but only superficial informations about healthy nourishment. In view of individual groceries in children's nutrition, white pastry prevail and in contrary, there is a lack of vegetable and fishes. Sweetened drinks are consumed only sporadicaly but sweets and candies are eaten every day by a majority of surveyed children. Frequency of consuming is correct by a majority, but the problem is in an inadequate interval between the last meal and sleeping. There is also a failure in composition of few of the dishes. The drinking regime is adequate by a majority of children. In view of a high importance of nourishment as a primary prevention of many diseases, I would recommend to increase the erudition of mother.
