Children should maintain a diversified food diet, pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables, and the combination of thickness and thickness, and ensure the intake of fish, meat, milk, beans and vegetables. Eat three meals a day, with an interval of 4 to 5 hours between meals; the proportion of the three meals should be appropriate. According to the proportion of the energy provided to the total energy throughout the day, breakfast accounts for 30%, lunch accounts for 40%, and dinner accounts for 30%. Ensure adequate supply of protein, vitamins, and minerals while controlling total energy.
