00:00We are very happy to work with NutriPiatto, for NutriPiatto with Nestlé,
00:11precisely because it was a project that has had its continuity from 2018 to today
00:17and every year with some new features,
00:21which has allowed us to work a lot with students of the area of Human Nutrition Sciences
00:27on food education projects.
00:29NutriPiatto has the characteristic of being very simple, very immediate,
00:34but also, for what we have seen, very effective in making parents understand
00:39how they must adapt the child's diet as the child grows.
00:44It was also very interesting to see the characteristics that the students saw in this project
00:51and thanks also to their imagination, their creativity,
00:55every year we have been able to add a board,
00:58for which NutriPiatto, as a tool to identify the correct portions,
01:04has become a tool to know the regional recipes
01:07and then a tool to teach children to make the first breakfast well,
01:12also giving suggestions to mothers on how to make the first breakfasts.
01:17And then a teaching tool for schools
01:19and this year NutriPiatto came out in motion
01:22to help parents and children understand when to have a snack if they go to do sports,
01:28when to recover the energy lost from a particularly intense race.
01:32So it seems to me that NutriPiatto can have this feature of continuity,
01:37but also of innovation, of deepening, of themes that become more and more broad,
01:43more and more transversal, but very important
01:46to educate children to have a correct diet.
01:49Surely they can improve their diet
01:52and also the health data show it.
01:56And above all they can improve the lifestyle in general,
02:00combining a correct diet with a correct movement.
02:04Without a doubt the most critical elements are fruit and vegetables,
02:09vegetables even more, and also for this NutriPiatto gives a series of suggestions,
02:14how mothers can take their children to go shopping,
02:17to manipulate fruit and vegetables in such a way that they are not unknown,
02:22they become a bit of a game for the child who wants to know the flavors too.
02:28Among other things, the knowledge of new flavors at the age of childhood is very important,
02:34precisely because those flavors will represent the roots,
02:38the culture of the child and the adult for a lifetime.
02:41Therefore, the more we help children to diversify their diet correctly,
02:47the more we will have adults able to have that food biodiversity
02:52that guarantees the supply not only of macronutrients, but also of micronutrients.
