[Nutrition at the preschool institutions: organizational aspects].
Three meals a day with a high-calorie afternoon snack (instead of afternoon snack and supper) moved an hour later than usual are most adequate and physiological for preschool children who stay at a preschool institution for 10.5 to 12 hours. This is achieved by a reduced food assortment that covers 85% of daily energy losses in a child. Control of nutrition adequacy in the preschool institution by a bookkeeping cumulative list is rather effective and informative. A month official control of the nutritive value of a mean daily menu apportionment does not achieve the main objective of a control - to maintain the nutrition balance of meals and their correction with foods. While republishing normative documents on nutrition at the preschool institutions, sanitary epidemiological surveillance bodies wish to be overcautious, by expanding the list of products and dishes prohibited for use, thus releasing the workers of the nutrition unit of a preschool institution from responsibility for safe nutrition, but this frequently causes damage to nutrition itself.
