"The responsibility of parents for the health of their children should come first"
Sanitary doctor Maria Kushubakova, who works in the Department of Disease Prevention and State Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance, recommended during a broadcast on "Birinchi Radio" not to allow schoolchildren to fast.
According to her, a growing body needs proper nutrition that includes trace elements, vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. "With high energy expenditures, it is extremely important to provide children with a balanced diet. Parents should take their children's health seriously and not force them to fast. Schoolchildren are not yet capable of fully understanding lifestyle choices and religious beliefs, which is characteristic of a more mature age. Therefore, we, medical specialists, do not support this practice," she added.
