Frigicoll and Fundación Gasol, united against child obesity

On 14 March, the company Frigicoll, with its brands De Dietrich and Liebherr, in conjunction with the Gasol Foundation, ran several health workshops to promote healthy eating.

During these sessions, we explained to the participants what makes a healthy dish, the importance of having a balanced diet and we gave them various ideas for healthy recipes. Also, we discussed several examples of healthy snacks to help parents to decide what to give their children between main meals and we talked about the importance of drinking enough water to stay hydrated.

Later, several workshops were held in the Foundation’s facilities equipped by Frigicoll. Using a microwave oven and two multi-function ovens made by De Dietrich, we prepared a healthy menu with various options that can be adapted to any schedule, whether one has little time to spare or a whole afternoon to spend cooking.

Bars made of cereals and honey, Arravalo-style potatoes, and several main dishes such as steamed salmon were some of the ideas that were prepared and sampled by the participants at the end of the workshop.

The Gasol Foundation, located in Barcelona, was founded by Pau and Marc Gasol with the aim of reducing childhood obesity through the promotion of sports and physical activity, healthy eating, keeping regular hours and the quality of rest, and the emotional balance of children, young people and their families
