In fact, the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends eating five pieces of fruit and vegetables each day, although some research increases this to seven. But, despite expert advice, few people include these foods continuously and in a varied way in their diets. And, when we are talking about children, it’s even more difficult to meet this recommendation. To achieve this goal, or at least get close to the amount recommended by nutritionists, we can use some tips, almost without realising, that will increase the consumption of these foods among boys and girls.Tips to get little ones to eat vegetablesVegetables are probably the food that children find most challenging to eat. They don’t usually like their flavour or texture, but they are essential for their growth. That’s why we must insist and come up with original ways to ensure children receive all of the vitamins, minerals and fibre they contain. The key is to use our imagination to make attractive, colourful and fun dishes.Here we give you some tips!Introduce a variety of preparation methods: vegetables can taste very different depending on how they are prepared. Try offering them raw, cooked, roasted or steamed to know which way your children prefer them.Combine them with other foods they like: mix the vegetables with foods they already enjoy. You can add spinach to an omelette, grated carrot to pasta sauce or prepare mashed cauliflower with mashed potatoes.Make purées and soups: purées and soups are an excellent way of incorporating lots of vegetables to children’s diets without them realising. You can make vegetable soups or add courgette and grated carrot to soup.Involve them in the cooking process: as with fruit, let children help you to wash and prepare vegetables. This can awaken their interest in trying what they have cooked.

The pandemic has accelerated the digitalisation of many day-to-day activities, the way of working and even how we interact with each other. The so-called information and communication technologies (ICT) offer us numerous advantages, such as better access to information, immediacy, reductions in costs and time, or an improved connectivity between people. But.... Did you know that digitalisation is not the same throughout the world, or for everyone? There is an imbalance called the digital dividewhich affects different social groups of the population, but one in particular: our elderly. Below, we tell you what the so-called digital divideis,how it affects this part of the population and, above all, how we can help them.What is the digital divide?We understand the digital divideas the inequality in the access, use or impact of information and communication technologies (ICT) between different social groups, whether they are geographical, economic, cultural, relating to disabilities, gender or age. Nowadays, in light of these points, we can talk about two types of digital divide:The access divide: refers to the impossibility that some groups face in accessing this resource. Although there are a wide range of causes, it is usually related to socio-economic differences between people and between countries, since digitalisation requires costly investments and infrastructure.The use divide: refers to the lack of digital skills which prevents people using ICT, both for personal and professional use.The digital divide in the elderlyNowadays, technology affects nearly every aspect of our day-to-day lives. This change, which began with the arrival of the internet, has been gradual over the years. However, the pandemic caused by Covid-19 in 2020 advanced the transfer of most activity to onlineenvironments, including some essential services like health or finance. The elderly were faced with this change without being prepared and this further increased the digital dividethat already existed in this sector of the population.In Spain, the biggest digital divide is amongpeople over the age of 65. The Barometer of the Democratic Union of Pensioners and Retired People of Spain (UDP) highlights the dimension of this digital divide:40.5% of the elderly say they have never accessed the internet. This is due to several reasons:They have been thrown head first into a complete digitalisation. Services that they thought they could use normally have become digitalised and they can no longer access them.They haven’t received any technology training in the past.Disinterest in learning, as they didn’t think they would need technology training to perform their everyday activities in the future.They don't have access to internet or technological tools, such as computers or smartphones.

Although the vegan lifestyle has been around for a long time, it has become more popular and notorious in our society in recent years. Despite some people considering this to be a new diet trend, veganism is much more than a diet: it is a movement characterised by respecting animals and covers things including diet and the defence of their fundamental rights.People who follow this lifestyle, vegans, refuse to eat food products of animal origin. But, is being vegan the same as being vegetarian? Below, we will analyse the so-called “veggietrend”and the benefits of being vegetarian.What is veganism?Veganism is a way of life where animals are considered to be equal, so they refuse to consume animals in their diets and in fashion, but also in areas in which they may suffer harm. Those who consider themselves to be vegan refuse to perceive animals as goods, transport or entertainment, in addition to a product to be used for experimentation in the cosmetics or pharmaceutical industry.Differences between the vegan and vegetarian dietHave you ever wondered what the difference is between the vegan and vegetarian diet? Both diet options have a similar base, vegetables, but if we look closely we can see some differences. Make a note of them!The reason for the diet:veganism is an ethical and moral attitude which isn’t just focussed on diet and is, therefore, stricter. For its part, the vegetarian diet also excludes animal meat, but the main objective is to have a diet which is as healthy as possible or to help to look after the planet.Prohibited foods:vegetarians don’t eat meat, but they can eat foods of animal origin. These include dairy, milk, gelatine or honey. In some cases, they also include fish or poultry in their diet. In terms of a vegan diet, it is more restrictive and excludes any product that comes from an animal.Vegans can be included within vegetarians, but not vice versa:many vegetarians opt for this type of diet to combat animal cruelty, but in a less restrictive way than vegans. Hence, the vegan diet could be considered as the “stricter” version of the latter group. Nowadays, there are different types of vegetarians depending on the degree of tolerance. The most common are:Pescatarians:those who eat fish, dairy and eggs, but not meat.Lacto-ovo vegetarians:people who consume dairy and eggs, but not meat or fish.Lacto-vegetarians:people who consume dairy, but not meat, fish or eggs.Vegans:those who don’t eat eggs, dairy or any type of animal derivative.
