The purpose of this study was to investigate what knowledge teachers in kindergarten have about nutrition and human metabolism and which education shall be made at mealtimes. I also wanted to investigate if preschool teachers know about the Swedish National Food Agency's advice for good food in kindergarten. This was done by a quantitative questionnaire answered by 47 teachers. My results show that the teachers feel that their knowledge is usually sufficient but that they would like to have more knowledge with a focus on imparting knowledge to the children. During mealtime education about origin of the food, how the body reacts to the food we eat and how we should live in a healthy way be made. This combined with physical activity and social skills training. The Swedish society has increasing problems with diseases caused by an unhelthy lifestyle, people are also more sedentary today and a lots of them are suffering by overweight.Therefore it is important to learn about how we care for our bodies in a healthy way early in life. Few teachers now about the Swedish National Food Agency's advice for good food in kindergarten, the advicese can be a good suppert in this learning and consequently the advices need to be highlighted and become a important complement to the policy documents and curriculum that are guiding the activites in the Swedish preschool. / Syftet med denna undersökning var att undersöka vilken kunskap pedagogerna har om näringslära och ämnesomsättning samt vilket lärande de anser ska ske vid måltiderna i förskolan. Jag ville också undersöka om pedagogerna känner till Livsmedelsverkets råd för bra mat i förskolan. Metoden för undersökningen var kvantitativ genom enkäter som besvarades av 47 pedagoger. Svaret på mina forskningsfrågor blev att pedagogerna känner att deras kunskap för det mesta räcker till men att de gärna vill ha fortbildning i ämnet och då gärna med fokus på att förmedla kunskapen till barnen. Vid måltiden kan lärande om matens ursprung, om hur kroppen reagerar på den mat vi äter samt hur vi ska leva på ett hälsosamt sätt ske. Detta i kombination med motorisk och social träning. Det svenska samhället har problem med sjukdomar som orsakas av en ohälsosam kost och en mer stillasittande livsstil. Därför är det viktigt att människor tidigt i livet får lära sig hur de ska ta hand om sin kropp på bästa möjliga sätt. Eftersom min undersökning visar att få pedagoger känner till Livsmedelsverkets råd som kan vara ett stöd i detta arbete kan de behöva lyftas fram och bli ett tydligare komplement till de dokument och läroplaner som styr verksamheten i den svenska förskolan.

Tyrimo objektas - 16-19 m. Kauno ir Šiaulių gimnazijų moksleivių fizinio aktyvumo, žalingų įpročių ir subjektyvaus sveikatos vertinimo sąsajos. Tyrimo tikslas: įvertinti Kauno ir Šiaulių gimnazijų 16-19 m. moksleivių fizinio aktyvumo, žalingų įpročių ir subjektyvaus sveikatos vertinimo sąsajas. Uždaviniai: 1. Nustatyti moksleivių fizinį aktyvumą lyties, amžiaus ir gyvenamosios vietos aspektu. 2. Nustatyti moksleivių žalingų įpročių paplitimą lyties, amžiaus ir gyvenamosios vietos aspektu. 3. Atskleisti moksleivių fizinio aktyvumo, žalingų sveikatai įpročių ir subjektyvios sveikatos vertinimo tarpusavio ryšį. Hipotezė: fiziškai pasyvesni moksleiviai labiau linkę į žalingus įpročius ir skundžiasi prastesne sveikata. Tyrimo imtis ir organizavimas. Anketinė apklausa buvo vykdoma 2013 m. lapkričio 2014 m. sausio mėnesiais Kaune ir Šiauliuose, kiekvienam tiriamajam taikant anketavimo metodą. Iš viso apklausta 316 moksleivių. Iš jų 161 Kauno mieste ir 155 Šiauliuose. Išvados: 1. Pakankamai fiziškai aktyvūs buvo tik 28,9 proc. visų apklaustų moksleivių. Buvo nustatyta, kad vaikinų dalis, kurie laisvalaikio metu mankštindavosi kasdien arba beveik kasdien buvo dvigubai didesnė dalis negu merginų. 18-19 m. amžiaus moksleiviai rečiau buvo fiziškai aktyvūs kasdien ar beveik kasdien negu 16-17 m. amžiaus mokiniai. Nustatyta, kad Šiaulių mieste kiekvieną dieną fizine veikla užsiiminėjo 33,8 proc., tuo tarpu Kauno mieste kasdien ar beveik kasdien aktyvių moksleivių buvo tik 24,2 proc. 2...

The aim of this thesis is to examine what ideas of unhealthy lifestyle are prominent in the recently published national care protocol for unhealthy lifestyle habits in Sweden, henceforth Vårdprogrammet. These ideas will further be examined in relation to older systems of ideas/ideologies within health care, based on previous research. The empirical material consists mainly of Vårdprogrammet. Aiming to deepen the understanding of this material, I have further perused current official reports regarding public health, related guidelines from the National Board of Health and Welfare as well as related regional care protocols. The method used is inspired by the model developed by Mats Lindberg for qualitative analysis of ideas and ideological content. The analysis of the empirical material shows that the health concept is defined by pointing out its negation, i.e. what unhealthy lifestyles look like. Vårdprogrammet expresses a line of political, cultural and ethical values. They can analytically be summarized as (1) democracy and equality, (2) climate awareness, (3) demands of evidence-based knowledge (4) political cooperation, and (5) ethical principles. The work with unhealthy lifestyle is related to the UN global aim for sustainable development. Agenda 2030 can be viewed as an overall societal hygienic programme, within which the large health problem that lifestyle habits constitute, will be solved. Similar views were held within social hygiene in the mid-19th century, where health and disease were seen as a societal matter. Vårdprogrammet is stated to be based on the ethical principle of person-centred approach. One can however also discern other ethical principles, such as the autonomy, care and justice principles. A health-promoting approach, salutogenesis, pervades the view of the patient/human in the prescribed interaction with patients.

The thesis focuses on the topic of changing eating habits from the time of Magdalena Dobromila Rettigová to contemporary trends of healthy lifestyle.
