Our life in present-day Japan has become rich and has become saturated with daily commodities. However, various problems have arisen here because of our wealth. Lifestyle-related diseases caused by the disorder of eating habits have begun to appear not only in adults but also in children. Especially, lack of breakfast or meals which children have by themselves not only cause lifestyle-related diseases in the bodies of children, but also have a very bad influence upon their minds. It is said that juvenile delinquency and not attending school have been on the increase in recent years. It is also said that these are caused by the unbalance of body and mind and disorder of the life rhythm, including lack of breakfast, and failure to restrain desire and impulse. This situation has brought about the introduction of 'Food Education' to the course of study, and a system wherein nutrition teachers are employed by schools, beginning on April 1, 2005, and 'The Basic Law on Nutritional Education' was passed on June 10, 2005. We have conducted a scientific consideration of food education in this paper, because the importance of this education has increased and it is indispensable in elementary schools.
