BossQ, we are all familiar with the slogan “4 Healthy 5 Perfect”. Reviewed in an online Tirto media article, the 4 Healthy 5 Perfect concept was popularized by the first professor of nutrition in Indonesia, Prof. Poerwo Soedarmo in the 1950s. Since then, this idea has been instilled in Indonesian society from a young age at school. However, did you know that the understanding of healthy living has now shifted, from the 4 Healthy 5 Perfect concept to the “Fill My Plate” campaign?

As time progresses, human knowledge also develops. Since the 1990s, the “Fill My Plate” campaign has replaced the concept we have long known. The 4 Healthy 5 Perfect concept was found to be able to help Indonesian people understand appropriate eating patterns to support health, but with portions that do not have clear standards, this concept does not provide a deeper understanding regarding the nutritional and nutritional intake needs in each portion of food. Therefore, this lack of understanding can cause a number of problems, for example malnutrition or obesity. In an effort to improve the nutrition of Indonesian people more effectively, the "Fill My Plate" campaign was born which emphasizes balanced nutrition more specifically and precisely, namely a plate consisting of 50% fruit and vegetables and 50% carbohydrates and protein.

Why is it important for us to discuss this?

It turns out, despite existing guidelines, Indonesian people still don't have good habits of eating fruit and vegetables. Quoting the results of Basic Health Research in 2013 in Media Indonesia, Indonesian people are classified as not eating enough vegetables and fruit. As many as 93.5% of the population under 10 years old do not consume vegetables and fruit as recommended. In fact, this guide to consuming balanced nutrition can determine the quality of this nation's future generations. Need adequate energy and nutrition to support optimal growth.

Each person's reasons for consuming fruit and vegetables are of course very varied. Even so, increasing vegetable and fruit consumption still needs to be our shared priority. We need to develop the awareness to eat more often with appropriate nutritional intake in each of us, so that we can pass on the spirit of a healthy lifestyle to each other.

Cultivating new habits takes a lot of effort. Therefore, for you, Qasir has a solution that is not only easy, but also practical and profitable.

Shop for Healthy Eating Needs Through Qasir Collaboration with TaniHub

A healthy life is undoubtedly everyone's hope, but sometimes it's not that easy to live. There are a number of things that need to be done to live a more suitable lifestyle. For example, you want to eat fruit and cook vegetables, but it turns out the refrigerator is empty. I often don't have time to go shopping due to busy activities. Not to mention having to take the time to shop, travel to the store, and carry all the shopping items yourself.

Is it?

Today, everything can be said to be online. Anything can be done with technology that is becoming more sophisticated every day, one of which is shopping.
