ASSESSMENT OF EATING HABITS AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVELS OF HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Abstract
Nutritional mistakes that were identified as most often committed by the surveyed students were: eating insufficient amounts of fruit and vegetables and incorrect proportion of their consumption (predominantly fruit), eating insufficient amounts of fish, as well as milk and milk products, excessive consumption of sweets and snacking in between meals. Therefore, the conducted survey allows us to conclude that the surveyed high school students require nutritional education aimed at eliminating dietary mistakes. In addition, the surveyed youth also require education about the importance of physical activity in proper psychosomatic development and in maintaining health. Unfortunately, the surveyed youth most often spend their free time in a passive way, the majority of physically active students spend less than an hour a day on this activity.
