PROBLEM:
The students of the English Class 4C2, classroom A103 of the UNACH are attracted to
healthy food in order to improve their academic performance, but some of them do not
know how to prepare recipes in a very short time to have good nutrition, hence the
importance of publicizing different options that can be prepared in their day to day
taking care of their digestion and/or health.
GENERAL GOAL
Create 5 recipes with healthy foods that will be presented through a video
tutorial on YouTube in order to help improve the health, digestive system, and academic
performance of UNACH students.
SPECIFIC GOALS:
• Gather information on healthy recipes that are quick and cheap to
prepare.
• Classify the information obtained according to the objective of our
project.
• Use digital applications such as InShot, CapCut and others to edit the
final video.

TOPIC:
• The importance of healthy food in nutrition, academic performance and care of
the digestive system of UNACH students.
THEORICAL FRAMEWORK
Hernandez, (2004) says that food is a chain of events that starts from the
cultivation, selection and preparation of food to its presentation and consumption by the
group.
A healthy diet is achieved through a balanced combination of different foods
that meets the nutritional needs necessary for proper growth and development of
physical and intellectual capacities.
In addition, promote the consumption of a varied and balanced diet for the
prevention of cardiovascular diseases, including cancer., hypertension, anemia, diabetes,
osteoporosis and obesity.
Diversity is ensured by selecting and including all types of food in the diet,
giving priority to vegetables and fruits due to their carbohydrate, fiber, vitamin and
mineral content.
Vegetables are recommended for their high fiber content necessary for the
digestive system, nutritional value, pleasant flavor and aromatic properties, they are the
main producers of vitamins necessary for the functioning of the organism, they maintain
the acid-base balance and contain. special substances that eliminate or stop the
development of pathogenic microorganisms.
In my opinion, healthy food should be our first option when choosing food since
these have a specific selection of ingredients and that will be of great benefit for mental

and physical health due to the nutrients that are obtained and that we would achieve our
body acquires.
Rayas Duarte, Romero Baranzini & Ana (2008), writers with a long career, in
their work entitled: "FIBERS BASED ON FRUITS, VEGETABLES AND CEREALS:
FUNCTION OF HEALTH", mention that our past generations have good digestion as a
digestive substance. that was difficult to digest was of plant origin, which increases bulk
in the digestive tract, but today we know it and call it "dietary fiber". Fiber provides
very little energy or calories and is generally found in cell walls and/or plant
carbohydrates that are not digested or absorbed by the human GI tract, having a major
impact on our bodies.
That's why I have to mention that fiber helps us stay healthy, protects us from
certain diseases such as colon cancer, heart disease, constipation, hemorrhoids and
diverticulosis. In addition, fiber helps regulate blood sugar levels and intestinal
functions, lower cholesterol, and control our weight.
In my opinion, we have an opportunity to make healthy food choices and
contribute to healthy eating education for present and future generations, to encourage
children, adolescents, and young adults to make healthy food choices in their daily diet.
In addition, it is also important to be able to educate consumers so that they see the
value of a balanced diet and, therefore, that the food industry produces nutritious, easy-
to-prepare and commercially available foods; Finally, it's worth mentioning that fiber
has several benefits, including the ability to help combat a variety of harmful and
chronic health conditions.
Cordova, 2005 defines people's health, growth and development. The daily diet
of each individual must contain a sufficient amount of the different macronutrients and
micronutrients to cover most physiological needs. These are influenced by numerous
factors, such as sex, age, physiological state (pregnancy, lactation and growth), body
composition, physical activity and the specific characteristics of each individual.
Opinion: having a healthy diet benefits human beings mainly because they do
not contract chronic diseases and harm their health

TYPE: QUALITATIVE
TOOLS
• GOAL 1
1. Internet
2. Computer
3. Books
4. Journals
• GOAL 2
1. Case study
2. Observation
3. Group discussion
• GOAL 3
1. App InShot
2. App CapCut
3. YouTube platform
PROCEDURE
• GOAL 1
“Gather information on healthy recipes that are quick and cheap to
prepare”
Through the use of the Google search engine, we managed to compile healthy
recipes that involve consuming fruits and vegetables to have excellent health, as well as
considering the economic factor in the ingredients and their preparation, since it is
necessary to emphasize that our target audience does not has plenty of financial
resources to afford to eat "natural and gluten-free" food.

• GOAL 2
“Classify the information obtained according to the objective of our
project.”
Here at this point we want to make known the information that is needed for our
project, the exact points for our recipe, since there are several tips from other sources
that could help us improve our final product.
• GOAL 3
“Use digital applications such as InShot, CapCut and others to edit the
final video”.
Here we will use tools that will help us in our projects, such as our objective is
to make a YouTube video showing our recipe, so to edit it we will use inshot or
different applications that allow us to edit our video.
BENEFITS OF A HEALTHY DIET
A good diet is healthy, favors a good state of health and reduces the risk of chronic
diseases, a good diet is healthy, favors a good state of health and reduces the risk of
chronic diseases, in addition one of the five factors for health and the possibility of
having chronic diseases, are diet, physical exercise, obesity, sedentary lifestyle,
hypertension arterial, hypercholesterolemia and insufficient consumption of fruits and
vegetables.
SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM
The resolution of the problem has considered social theories such as the society of
immediacy and the society of the spectacle, which postulate an exaggerated cult of the
immediate, performance, acceleration and the existence of anxiety in the individual,
added to the problems created in a show society that seeks to copy the lifestyle of
Hollywood stars or social networks, full of good "customs", a "healthy" diet and
"sculptural" bodies; Therefore, we have decided to use these characteristics and digital

tools such as "tiktok" to develop recipes that promote a good and immediate diet for the
students of the 4C2 English Class, classroom A103 of the UNACH, since we have
investigated concepts of health and far From a social critique, we recognize that for the
growth and development of university students, their diet must contain a sufficient
amount of different macro and micronutrients to cover most of their physiological
needs.
