healthy posture

The National Health Service of the Ministry of Health and Welfare stated that the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends using the Body Mass Index (BMI), a relatively simple, economical and easy-to-promote method to determine the degree of obesity. The higher the BMI, the more likely you are to suffer from obesity-related diseases. The probability will be higher.

Table 1: BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height (meters) ÷ height (meters)
BMI range for adults aged 18 years and over (inclusive) Is the weight normal?
BMI＜18.5 kg/m2 "Underweight" requires more exercise and a balanced diet to increase physical fitness and maintain health!
18.5 kg/m2 ≤ BMI＜24 kg/m2 Congratulations! "Healthy weight", continue to maintain it!
24 kg/m2 ≤ BMI＜27 kg/m2 oh! If you are "overweight", be careful and practice "healthy weight management" as soon as possible!
BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2 Ah ~ "Obesity", you need to practice "healthy weight management" immediately!

In order to promote healthy posture among students and improve the abnormal posture rate of nearly 4%, we organize healthy posture classes and practice healthy eating and regular exercise to prevent the early occurrence of metabolic syndrome and related diseases.

The action plan plans to plan the activity of "Keep your mouth open, open your legs, drink more water and be healthy", which will be carried out using lectures, demonstrations, implementations and prize-based answer questions to attract and encourage all school staff, faculty and students to participate in improving the knowledge and implementation of healthy eating. Exercise regularly and develop good sleeping habits to promote and maintain a healthy posture or self-care methods.


The smoke goes out! Fresh and good (forest) life

Smoke damage prevention

According to the 110-112 Healthy Lifestyle Survey of our school students and the lifestyle survey of freshmen’s physical examination, the smoking population of our school is about 2-3%, with more males than females. Graduate students and foreign students are the main groups of students who smoke. Due to academic pressure and peer influence, the proportion of graduate students who smoke is greater than that of university students.

Due to their cultural background and living habits, foreign students are accustomed to smoking anywhere, exposing the campus to second-hand smoke and endangering the health of teachers and students. In order to prevent and reduce the smoking population on campus, and to train our faculty, staff and students to use positive stress relief methods and develop healthy living habits, we plan to plan a series of activities "Stop the Smoking! Fresh (Forest) Life" to maintain and promote the campus A healthy living environment for all faculty, staff and students.

Sex education

According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the nationwide decline in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome shows that national policies are having their effect! Although it is confirmed that the number of cases is declining year by year, it is also found that the main age group of people infected with HIV in China is young people aged 15 to 34, among whom "unsafe sex" is the main cause of infection. After epidemic surveys, it was also found that mobile dating software Due to the characteristics of privacy, convenience and quick connection to the community, the opportunities for young people to have sex through online dating are rapidly increasing, which increases their risk of AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases.

From August 2023, the Ministry of Education will provide free menstrual products in schools at all levels. In addition to solving the problem of "menstrual poverty", it will also promote gender equality education so that "menstruation" can become an issue discussed frankly in classrooms regardless of gender.

Therefore, it is planned to plan a series of "Walking with Love" activities to strengthen the promotion of menstrual issues, safe sex, screening, and PrEP, so as to establish a healthy and safe sexual concept.

Our school attaches great importance to student campus safety and has installed 27 AEDs on campus, conducts regular inspections, and continues to conduct first aid education and training for venue personnel.

All scores exceed 4.5 points (five-point scale), showing that first aid education and training has a positive impact on increasing the intention to participate in rescue operations!
