Abstract

Pretilost je posljednjih desetljeća sve zastupljenija bolest koja se ubrzano širi svijetom te sve više prijeti čovječanstvu. Nažalost, pretilost je bolest koja u sve većoj mjeri zahvaća upravo djecu. Čimbenici koji dovode do pretilosti mogu biti genetski ili okolišni. Sjedilački način života, nedovoljno kretanja i lobe prehrambene navike najviše dovode do stanja prekomjerne tjelesne težine. Unošenjem više hrane nego što je potrebno, organizam dobiva višak energije koja se naposljetku u tijelu pohranjuje kao masne stanice te se na taj način vremenom razvija pretilost. Pretilost dovodi do raznih zdravstvenih i duševnih posljedica koje se ne moraju primijetiti u ranoj dobi, nego se mogu pojaviti u zrelim godinama. Zbog toga je od velike važnosti raditi na prevenciji prekomjerne tjelesne težine.
Svakodnevna tjelesna aktivnost i pravilna prehrana dva su pojma koja su usko povezana jedan s drugim, međusobno se isprepliću i zajedničkim snagama se bore u prevenciji prekomjerne tjelesne težine kako kod odraslih, tako i kod djece. Djeci je potrebno svakodnevno nuditi dovoljno kvalitetnih, nutritivno bogatih obroka kako bi se njihov organizam opskrbio potrebnim mikronutrijentima i makronutrijentima, te im omogućiti svakodnevnu tjelesnu aktivnost.
Svrha ovog rada je anonimnim anketnim istraživanjem ispitati roditelje djece predškolske dobi o navikama i načinu života njihove djece, potaknuti ih na razmišljanje što i kako mogu bolje učiniti kako bi spriječili pretilost kod djece. Nadalje svrha rada je istražiti ima li utjecaj stručna sprema roditelja, mjesečni prihodi u obitelji i broj članova obitelji na razvoj pretilosti kod djece.

Abstract (english)

Obesity is an increasingly prevalent disease in recent decades that is rapidly spreading throughout the world and threatens humanity. Unfortunately, obesity is a disease that in a lot of cases affects children. Factors that lead to obesity can be genetic or environmental. Sedentary lifestyle, insufficient movement and bad eating habits mostly lead to overweight. By consuming more food than is necessary, the body gets excess energy, which is eventually stored in the body as a fat cells, and thus obesity develops over time. Obesity leads to various health and mental consequences that do not have to be noticed at an early age, but can appear in adulthood. That is why it's very important to work on the prevention of excess body weight.
Daily physical activity and proper nutrition are two concepts that are closely related to each other, they intertwine with each other and fight together to prevent overweight in both adults and children. Children need to be provided enough high-quality, nutritionally rich meals every day in order to supply their bodies with the necessary micronutrients and macronutrients, and enable them to exercise daily.
The purpose of this paper is to use an anonymous survey to ask parents of preschool children about their children's habits and lifestyle, to encourage them to think about what and how they can do better to prevent obesity in children. Furthermore, the purpose of the work is to investigate whether the academical education of the parents, the monthly income of the family and the number of family members have any influence on the development of obesity in children.
