Gwangyang City Child Meal Management Support Center Launches 'Eat Breakfast Campaign'

Promoting the Importance of Eating Breakfast to Foster Healthy Eating Habits and Support Healthy Growth

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Heo Seon-sik] The Jeonnam Gwangyang City Children's Meal Management Support Center announced on the 14th that it conducted a "Breakfast Eating Campaign" targeting students commuting near Yonggang Elementary and Middle Schools in Gwangyang to mark "Nutrition Day."

This campaign, held under the theme "Eat Breakfast," was organized to raise awareness of the importance of eating breakfast to help children and adolescents, who have a high rate of skipping breakfast due to busy daily lives and poor eating habits, develop proper eating habits and grow healthily.

On the day, packages containing milk and misutgaru prepared as breakfast substitutes, promotional water bottles, and leaflets were distributed to about 300 students on their way to school, urging them to always have breakfast to maintain nutritional balance during growth, boost immunity, and improve learning efficiency.

Additionally, a promotion to encourage the consumption of Gwangyang rice was conducted to participate in revitalizing the local economy and to promote a healthy diet centered on rice.

Center Director Lee Song-mi said, "Eating habits formed in childhood are not easily changed and can affect lifelong health, so I hope growing children and adolescents establish proper eating habits through regular breakfast."

She added, "We will continue to carry out campaigns to improve eating habits for the promotion of citizens' health."
