Abstract

Tjelesna aktivnost i pravilna prehrana su najvažniji faktori u prevenciji pretilosti kod djece. U današnjem društvu u kojem se živi sve užurbaniji tempo te se više vremena provodi u aktivnostima koje ne zahtijevaju tjelesni napor potrebno je kod djece razvijati naviku da se što više kreću i bave tjelesnim aktivnostima. Užurbani način života pridonosi i nepravilnoj prehrani jer ljudi zbog manjka vremena rijetko kuhaju te jedu više brze hrane koja je lako dostupna i brzo spremna za upotrebu. Razvitak tehnologije te način života koji se temelji na sedentarnim aktivnostima također pridonosi razvoju pretilosti.
Uravnotežena i pravilna prehrana koja se sastoji od tri glavna obroka te dva međuobroka odgovorna je za normalan rast i razvoj djece jer opskrbljuje tijelo svim potrebnim tvarima kao što su bjelančevine, ugljikohidrati, vitamini i minerali.
Cilj ovog rada je na osnovu već prije napravljenih istraživanja ukazati na problem pretilosti te što dovodi to njega. Kroz razna istraživanja može se vidjeti da spol, dob, motoričke sposobnosti te okolina utječu na tjelesnu aktivnost djece. Slobodno vrijeme se većinom provodi gledajući televiziju, igrajući igrice uz jako malo vremena odvojenog za neku tjelesnu aktivnost. Također za potrebe ovog rada provedeno je istraživanje u trećim razredima osnovne škole u kojem su ispitane prehrambene navike i tjelesna aktivnost učenika i učenica. Osim ankete, izračunat je i ITM na temelju njihove težine i visine.

Abstract (english)

Physical activity and proper nutrition are the most important factors in preventing obesity in children. In today's society, where the pace is more and more hectic and more time is spent in activities that do not require physical effort, it is necessary to develop in children the habit of moving as much as possible and engaging in physical activities. A hectic lifestyle also contributes to an improper diet because people rarely cook due to lack of time and eat more fast food that is easily available and ready to use quickly. The development of technology and a lifestyle based on sedentary activities also contribute to the development of obesity.
A balanced and proper diet consisting of three main meals and two snacks is responsible for the children's normal growth and development because it supplies the body with all the necessary substances such as protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals.
The aim of this paper is to point out the problem of obesity and what leads to it, based on previous research. Various studies show that gender, age, motor skills and the environment affect the children's physical activity. Free time is mainly spent watching television and playing games with little time set aside for some physical activity. Also, for the purposes of this paper, research was conducted in the third grades of elementary school, in which the eating habits and physical activity of male and female students were examined. BMI was also calculated based on their weight and height.
