Daedong Hospital Holds '2025 Healthy Meal Exhibition' to Promote Employee Health

Daedong Hospital (Director Lee Kwang-jae) held the 2025 Healthy Meal Exhibition on the 14th in the staff cafeteria to promote the health of its employees.

This event was organized by the Food Service Nutrition Team and the Occupational Safety and Health Management Team based on the 2024 FACT SHEET from the Korean Diabetes Association, which states that as of 2022, 1 in 7 adults aged 30 and over (14.8%) suffer from diabetes, and approximately 14 million people are estimated to be in the prediabetes stage.

Through the exhibition, sugar and salt content in commonly consumed foods were displayed in real form to encourage employees to make healthy choices when selecting food. Panels on various disease-specific diets, such as diabetes and hypertension diets, provided information to help form proper eating habits.

Additionally, using a nutrition index checklist, the quality of employees' meals, behaviors, and nutritional status were comprehensively evaluated, and customized nutrition counseling was provided on-site as needed, suggesting practical methods for health management in 2025.

Park Ji-young, head of the Food Service Nutrition Team at Daedong Hospital, said, “What and how we eat three meals a day greatly affects our health, so I hope this exhibition served as a good opportunity for individuals to assess and improve their nutritional status.” She added, “In particular, the nutrition index is an important indicator for maintaining healthy eating habits. I hope everyone accurately understands their nutritional status through the evaluation results received today and continues to practice healthy habits for a healthy 2025.”

Daedong Hospital is conducting various initiatives for employee health management, including healthy meal exhibitions, livestock product traceability campaigns, and the Walking King Challenge.
