Nutrition and body mass assessment of extramural students from the Medical Academy and the Academy of Physical Education and Sport in Gdańsk
Abstract/OtherAbstract :
Nutrition is one of the health behaviors that in a significant way influence our health. The purpose of the work was to assess the nutrition and body mass of extramural students. 119 extramural women students aged 23–46 participated in the investigation. Anonymous questionnaires which included questions about the respondents’ nutrition, self-estimation of quality and quantity of food were to fill by the respondents. Their fatty tissue was measured by reference to the BMI index calculated with a Tanita apparatus. Extramural women students not only eat irregularly but do not follow the dieticians’ advice as for the number of meals eaten daily, either. The analysis of frequency of eating basic products revealed both positive and negative health behaviours. To the positive one belong drinking milk every day and eating diary products, eating fresh fruit and vegetables or drinking vegetable / fruit juices. However, the negative health behaviour includes rare eating grain products, e.g., groats, eating sweets frequently and drinking coffee. Self-estimation of body mass in the majority of women students agreed with the BMI index and divergences might be the result of a nowadays popular slim figure.
