Collaboration of cooperatives Thus, SECAM is once again present in this initiative, which aims to raise awareness of the importance of a healthy diet as a basic element in the prevention of different diseases, such as overweight, diabetes, or cardiovascular problems. During the opening of the events, held yesterday in the children's ward of the Virgin de la Arrival Hospital, the Federation of Agricultural Cooperatives of Murcia stressed that "from Foam, as it couldn't be in any case, we need to be available another year to protect and uphold the Mediterranean eating regimen", as well as the customary utilization of products of the soil vegetables. Thus, SECAM provides these foods to these conferences "which are essential for a healthy diet" and which "should be part of the nutritional pyramid." "With this coordinated effort, we likewise accomplish positive work for the area since we let the news out." «At Foam we believe that it is very important for them to be present regularly in educational centers, as it is necessary to promote these healthy habits from an early age», which contributes to improving the quality of life. Foam thus shares with the organizers of the University Hospital the goal of raising awareness among citizens to follow a real Mediterranean diet, with five daily portions of fruits and vegetables, something that contributes to a reduction in the risk of breast cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular problems, and overweight. For this reason, agricultural cooperatives stress the need for more campaigns so that "we are all aware of the number of fruits and vegetables that should be consumed and teach children to eat correctly, especially after the pandemic we have experienced, which has highlighted the importance of a good diet to combat the new diseases that are emerging." The pyramid of a healthy diet includes the daily consumption of vegetables, fruits, and vegetables, as well as fish, lean meats, legumes, milk, yogurt, cheese, rice, pasta, potatoes, and water, in addition to frequent physical activity.
