Study reveals that immigrant teenagers eat better than Spanish teenagers
Date:10/3/2007
pain most of them from South America, the Arab Countries, the Baltic Countries and China eat more proteins than Spanish teenagers. These proteins are contained in food such as quinoa, amaranth, millet, soya or yucca, and sweet potato. Lorena Ramos Chamorro points out that immigrants are more likely to try new foods and to eat something they do not know than Spanish people.
Within the framework of this study, Lorena Ramos Chamorro has designed and implemented a multicultural educational programme based on food and nutrition. This programme has been applied to students of the third year of Compulsory Secondary Education in the IES Cartuja school in Granada. Under the title Alimentacin Intercultural. Comer mejor es possible (Intercultural Alimentation, Eating better is possible), respect and acceptance of differences based on food have been fostered, this fact being the best example of cultural diversity. In this way, through this initiative students have tasted food and flavours from the countries of origin of their immigrant classmates. Furthermore, students have shared traditions and customs, allowing immigrants to maintain their identity in spite of cultural differences. Finally, and according to Lorena Ramos Chamorro, this project has improved, practically by 100%, students eating habits. She also states that her study has shown that it is possible to improve coexistence among students and create an educational atmosphere based on equal rights and interculturality.
