SUMMARY:

The school is where the cientific knowledge is improved and acquired.Therefore it has such important role in intelectual and critical society development. Nowadays, the main death cause is cardiovascular desease, the sedentary lifestyle and the poor eating habits contributes greatly to make this pandemic situation becomes worse. Teaching Biology in a investigative way, replacing students into a protagonist role of their learning with their own reality in mind, it should contribute to change their lifestyle for healthier ones. The aim of this work is to create a didactic sequence which will expose students to problem situations so they can have the opportunity to identify the main macromolecules necessary for building and living beings maintenance, especially human beings, knowing the similarities and diferences between fresh food,unprocessed, minimally processed and ultraprocessed foods, noticing their benefits and harms that each food brings itself, the consequences arising from poor food, the sedentary lifestyle causes on the body and how all these ones can trigger an inflamatory process in the human system, diseases such as high blood pressure, obesity and in particlar cardiovascular diseases which are the object of this study. The students may understand how ultra-processed food are made, they will know their composition and how the daily intake of these products associated with the a lack of physical activity can affect and compromise the perfect functioning of the human body,causing cardiovascular diseases.
