Bulgarians need to reduce their calorie intake and increase their intake of vitamins C and D, according to a new study. The facts of the study will be entered in the updated Ordinance on physiological norms of nutrition.
The survey was prepared by the Ministry of Health and was last launched in 2005. Since then, there have been changes in the recommended daily intake of carbohydrates, vitamins and water.
According to new data, the recommended daily water intake for men drops from 3.7 liters to 2.5 liters. For women, the ordinance says not to drink more than 2 liters of water, not what it was before - 2.7 liters.
The ordinance is being updated as a result of new studies by the World Health Organization and the European Food Safety Authority.
It turns out that, according to health authorities, it is not necessary to ingest as much water daily as was recommended 12 years ago.
For men, the recommended intake is reduced by more than 1 liter, and for women - by 700 milliliters.
Depending on physical activity, there are changes in calorie intake. With moderate physical activity, 2,600 calories a day are recommended for men and 2,000 calories a day for women.
Studies also show that Bulgarians should increase their intake of vitamin C. According to the new criteria, 95 mg of the vitamin is recommended for women and 110 mg per day for men.
Another recommendation is to reduce the use of carbohydrates. The update of the ordinance is required by the European Union and is published for public discussion on the website of the Ministry of Health.
