Background: Organization of school meals remains one of the important elements of preserving health of schoolchildren. The influence of the alimentary factor is most pronounced in the “sensitive periods” of childhood, one of which is primary school age. Our objective was to do hygienic assessment of nutrition of primary school children in the city of Smolensk and compliance of school diets with the principles of rational and adequate nutrition. Materials and methods: The object of the study included ten educational institutions representing all districts of Smolensk and contractors providing services for organization of school meals. The hygienic assessment of organization of school meals and actual nutrition of primary school children (grades 1–4, 7–11 years of age) was based on valid sanitary regulations. School breakfast and lunch were evaluated from a hygienic point of view. Results: We established that the school diets of younger schoolchildren in urban educational institutions were deficient in nutritional composition and caloric content, irrational and insufficiently balanced. School meals were characterized by a 1.5–1.6 times lower caloric content compared to the dietary reference intake due to a reduced content of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. The contents of microelements and vitamins were on the average by 10–67% and 15–69% lower than the recommended norms of physiological requirements of schoolchildren of this age group. The lack of fresh fruit and milk in school meals was another unfavorable factor in nutrition of schoolchildren. Conclusion: Our results dictate the need to optimize the diets of schoolchildren and to strengthen production control and sanitary and epidemiologic surveillance of compliance with hygienic requirements for catering in urban educational institutions.

The digestibility and nutritive value of pekilo protein (Paecilomyces varioti), and torula yeast (Candida utilis) were determined for four pigs weighing 35—50kg. The proportion of pekilo or torula was 30% of the barley-based diet. The crude fat was determined by the standard ether extraction method and by the HCl-ether method. The first method indicated a low fat content and a highly negative digestibility of fat, but the second showed that the pig is able to digest and absorb a large part of the ether-insoluble fat. The energy value thereby increased 14 % for pekilo and 12 % for torula over those obtained by the conventional ether method. The same energy value was obtained for barley by both methods. The energy values (HCI-ether method) obtained for pekilo and torula were 0.96 and 0.95 F.U./kg DM(F. U. = 0.7 kg starch), or 13.41 and 12.98 MJ ME/kg DM, respectively. The protein values, corrected for nucleic acid nitrogen, were 434 and 358g DCP/kg DM. The only significant difference between pekilo and torula was the DCP value (P< 0.001). The nitrogen balances in the pekilo and torula trials were very high and identical (24.4 and 24.0 g N/d), confirming the value of these feeds as protein supplements to cereal feeds for pigs.

Primary school children in the UK have the choice of a school meal provided by the school or a packed lunch provided from home. Currently, more than half of primary school children have a packed lunch. New food-based standards for school meals were introduced in English primary schools in 2006, followed by nutrient-based standards in 2008. No formal comparisons of primary school lunches by lunch type have been undertaken to date. The present review identified seven studies from 1990 to 2007 measuring lunchtime nutrient intake in children aged 5–11 years having a school meal and children having a packed lunch. Pooled estimates for each nutrient were as follows: energy intake was 543 (95 % CI 233, 854) kJ higher in packed lunches; total sugar intake was 14·0 (95 % CI 10·3, 17·7) g higher in packed lunches; non-milk extrinsic sugar intake was 11·7 (95 % CI 7·3, 16·2) g higher in packed lunches; saturated fat intake was 4·7 (95 % CI 2·4, 7·1) g higher in packed lunches and Na intake was 357 (95 % CI 174, 539) mg higher in packed lunches. Differences between school meals and packed lunches were larger for all nutrients after the introduction of food-based standards compared with the period of no standards. However, differences between before and after standards did not reach statistical significance. The nutritional quality of packed lunches is poor compared with school meals. The introduction of food-based standards for school meals in 2006 has moderately improved the nutrient content of school meals, slightly widening the nutritional gap between school meals and packed lunches.
