Title: Hygienic assessment of students' nutrition

Abstract

For the purpose of hygienic assessment of the nutrition quality of rural educational institutions students, we conducted a survey of 876 students. It is established that the diet of students does not meet the requirements of rational nutrition. In particular, 56.6% of respondents do not follow a diet in one way or another, 72.8% of students eat fast food, 12.4% do not follow 3-4 meals, and the proportion of girls is much higher. Of the respondents, 48.5% of students drink alcohol. The proportion of alcohol-containing beverages increases with an increase in the training period. 17.3% of respondents noted a deterioration in nutrition over the past year, and among first–year students - 19.9%. 27.9% of respondents limit themselves in nutrition, the main reason is lack of time (13.6%). Against this background, only 15.0% of students from all respondents regularly take multivitamins, and 26.9% do not take them, very rarely – 36.5%. A third (27.4%) of the surveyed students report the presence of chronic diseases, 20% of them – diseases of the digestive system.
