HYGIENIC METHODS FOR STUDYING THE NUTRITIONAL STATUS OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN
Abstract
Monitoring the nutritional hygiene of preschool children is essential for ensuring their health and proper development. This paper explores practical hygienic methods for evaluating dietary practices in preschool institutions, focusing on observing food preparation, analyzing meal composition, and assessing the sanitary conditions of food storage and distribution. The study emphasizes the importance of laboratory analyses for detecting harmful substances and pathogens, as well as the role of natural experiments and statistical assessments in evaluating the effectiveness and safety of nutritional interventions. These methods collectively contribute to identifying deficiencies in children's diets, preventing gastrointestinal and chronic illnesses, and optimizing nutrition protocols according to age-specific physiological needs. The application of international and national hygiene standards throughout the monitoring process ensures the scientific reliability and relevance of the findings.
