What foods can and cannot be put in a school bag?

With the beginning of the new school year, one of the issues parents think about most is what foods to put in their child's school bag.

BAKU.WS reports that experts say healthy and balanced nutrition directly affects children's attention, memory, and overall educational success.

Foods that can be included:

- Natural fruit and vegetable slices (apple, pear, carrot, cucumber)

- Homemade sandwiches (with whole wheat bread)

- Healthy nuts like walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds

- Natural yogurt or cheese

- Water and sugar-free natural fruit juice

Foods not recommended:

- Chips, cola, carbonated drinks

- Sweets and high-sugar products

- Fast-food type foods

- Packaged products with long shelf life but containing many additives and preservatives

According to nutritionists, parents should pay attention to both the flavors children enjoy and the health balance when choosing food for them. It is especially emphasized that clean water must be included in the school bag.

Thus, properly selected food both protects the child's health and helps them focus better on lessons at school.
