目标:通用学校午餐具有改善学生营养摄入和食物获取的潜力,但要做到这一点,菜单必须营养充足。澳大利亚对学校午餐计划(SLP)的兴趣与日俱增,目前正在塔斯马尼亚试用。澳大利亚学校目前没有菜单开发的营养指南。
方法:完成了对国际SLP的桌面审查,以及在澳大利亚营养参考值和澳大利亚膳食指南的背景下分析的发现,以告知塔斯马尼亚SLP指南的制定。
结论:全球,SLP由部分大小和/或营养标准指导。可持续发展计划(其中许多解决粮食不安全问题)必须为儿童提供满足能源和营养需求的机会,同时尽量减少食物浪费。我们提出了基于能量的营养标准和菜单开发的定性建议。所以呢?:我们已经制定了指导方针来为塔斯马尼亚SLP菜单的开发提供信息。这些指南可能适用于其他试点类似计划的州和地区。
OBJECTIVE: Universal school lunches hold the potential to improve student nutritional intake and access to food, but to do so menus must be nutritionally adequate. There is growing interest in school lunch programs (SLPs) in Australia, and one is currently being trialled in Tasmania. No nutrition
guidelines currently exist for menu development in Australian schools.
METHODS: A desktop review of international SLPs was completed, and findings analysed in the context of Australian Nutrient Reference Values and Australian Dietary
Guidelines to inform the development of Tasmanian SLP
guidelines.
CONCLUSIONS: Globally, SLPs are guided by portion sizes and/or nutrient criteria. SLPs (many of which address food insecurity) must provide children the opportunity to meet energy and nutrient needs, while minimising food waste. We propose energy-based nutrient criteria and qualitative recommendations for menu development. SO WHAT?: We have developed
guidelines to inform the development of Tasmanian SLP menus. These
guidelines may be applicable to other states and territories piloting similar programs.
