XAMPLES OF DIETS FOR INFANT'S AND CHILDREN'S
NUTRITIONAL
GUIDANCE, AND THEIR EFFECTS
(INTRODUCE THE USAGE OF CHLORELLA)
Written by Michiko Tokuyasu
(Nutritional Illness Counseling Clinic in Tottori
City)
Preface
Last time (the 27th Report of
Association of Nutritional-Improvement in Japan) we compared the growth of infants whose
age is between 0 and 3 years old, between two research groups. The first group is babies
to whose food schedule we have added chlorella for all 3 year olds; and the second group
is the babies whose food schedule we added chlorella only for a period of time and then
stopped. We have listed the comparison result in Table 1. From the table we could confirm
that the chlorella has good effects to the growth and development of infants. This time we
have a similar research about the infants whose age is between 4 and 5 years old.
The Research Objects, Method and Periods
The objects are 23 infants whose age is between 0
to 5 years old, (have eaten chlorella continuously: male: 8 - female 7) [have eaten
chlorella for the first one year and then stopped ; Male 4; Female 4]
The MethodWe added 0.2g chlorella for one day for every 1kg
weight of infants. We wanted to observe the health situation, the body weight, tallness,
the state of the teeth, and the eating state.
The Observation
The time of infant is a very important period of
human's physical and sprits and intelleigence, and the person's habit of eating is also
mainly formed in this period, the good habit of chewing is helpful to the development of
the brain, also helps the digestion, so the good habit of eating and good appetite could
have good effects in the development of people in every aspect, and we find that the
partial eclipse is the main reason that could cause all bad eating habits.
And we all know now in the advanced area around
the world, all focus on those topics about how to decrease the ratio of death of infants
and how to maintain the good habit of eating of infants, based on these points we made
this research to find out what is the effect of adding chlorella to the food schedule of
infants.
The Chlorella (Table 2) is a kind of algae in
fresh water, the chlorella contains full vitamin, protein, mineral. (Table 3) and the
extract of chlorella is good in taste. Furthermore it is very easy to cultivate, so we
could say that it is possible to make the chlorella to be a healthy between meal nibble or
event is necessary for meals every day (Table4)
The infant of the second group (those infants who
have every ate chlorella for one year and then stopped) is more easy to catch cold, and
more frequently get sick of digestion. Furthermore the more decayed teeth we found in the
second group, and the body the body weight of the second group is lower than standard.
And, we list the comparison Table about the
appearance of decayed teeth in Table 6.
The next step we would like to research the
relationship between the every aspects of the development of infants, and we will devote
to the topic of the habit of infant's eating, in order to figure out some guide of the
observation about the growth of infants.
