Liu Jinfeng, director of the Food Safety Standards and Monitoring and Evaluation of the National Health and Health Commission, introduced that since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, my country has fulfilled the duties of food safety standards, risk monitoring and evaluation, etc. Views, the food safety and nutritional health work has made positive progress.

Build the most rigorous standard system in an all -round way. Food safety standards are compulsory technical regulations, basically follow the production operators, and it is also an important basis for supervising and enforcement. In the past 10 years, the national standard review committee containing nearly 400 experts including 17 departments and units has adhered to the scientific foundation with rigorous risk assessment, and established a standard development system for the development of procedures, extensive participation in multiple fields, and scientific authority. As well as the standard tracking and evaluation mechanism of the in -depth cooperation of the entire society, and continuously improve the practicality and credibility of the standard. As of now, there have been 1,419 national standards for food safety, including more than 20,000 indicators.

Focus on strengthening risk monitoring and evaluation capabilities, and timely warning and maintaining health. The two major monitoring networks of national, provincial, municipal, and county -level food pollution and harmful factors monitoring, food -based disease monitoring networks, and national food safety risk assessment system were established. The monitoring of food pollution and harmful factors has covered 99%of counties and districts, and the monitoring of food -based diseases has covered more than 70,000 medical institutions at all levels. Food pollutants and harmful factors monitor food categories cover all 32 types of foods such as grains, vegetables, vegetables, egg milk, meat and poultry, and aquatic products consumed by Chinese residents.

Actively practice the concept of big food, helping "eating safely" to "eating healthy". Vigorously promote the national nutritional plan and healthy China for a reasonable diet. Strengthen the science popularization education of the general population, infant, maternal, and elderly people, and carry out widely carried out reasonable dietary guidance services. Organize and build a number of nutritional health restaurants, canteens, schools and other pilot demonstrations. Through social co -governance and co -construction, the masses obtain nutritional knowledge, nutritional products and professional services, and improve the convenience and convenience of food and nutritional places.

Liu Jinfeng said that the safety of students' diet is the focus of attention to the whole society. The National Health and Health Commission has always regarded campus food safety and prevention of students' food poisoning as the focus of work. First, the monitoring of school food safety and food -based diseases is an important part of the monitoring of national food safety risk. The second is to improve the school's food safety risk prevention and control system around key links such as procurement, storage, processing, distribution, and meals. The third is to organize theme mission activities to mobilize the whole society to guard the safety of campus food. Generally speaking, the food safety situation on campus is stable and improved, the incidence of food -based diseases is declining, and a major food safety incident involved in the campus does not occur. There is no case of death.

In recent years, through the organization and implementation of national nutrition plans and reasonable diet, national nutrition and health have improved significantly. The monitoring results show that the nutrition and health of residents in my country has continued to improve, and the differences in urban and rural areas have gradually narrowed. In 2020, the average height of the 18-44 -year -old residents in my country was 169.7 cm in men and 158.0 cm of women, which were 1.2 cm and 0.8 cm from 2015, respectively.

Ding Gangqiang, director of the Institute of Nutrition and Health of the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said that my country has launched a nutritional improvement plan for rural compulsory education students since 2011 to provide nutritional dietary subsidies for poor rural compulsory education students. The centers and control departments at all levels cooperated closely with the education department. Monitoring and assessment of the year by year showed that the student anemia rate fell from 16.7%in 2012 to 11.4%in 2021, and the slowdown rate of students' growth in 2012 decreased from 8.0%in 2012 to 2021. 2.5%.
