Abstract

Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je ustanoviti dnevni energetski unos i unos makronutrijenata studenata Farmaceutsko-biokemijskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, te na temelju dobivenih rezultata zaključiti u kojoj se mjeri podudaraju s preporučenim prehrambenim standardima pravilne prehrane za navedenu populacijsku skupinu. Ispitivanje je provedeno za ukupno 30 ispitanika (9 muških i 21 ženskih) u dobi od 22. do 24. godine. Korištena dijetetička metoda je četverodnevni dnevnik prehrane. Ispunjeni dnevnici prehrane obrađeni su u računalnom programu Microsoft Excel 2016. korištenjem nutritivnih vrijednosti USDA i nacionalnih tablica sa sastavom namirnica i pića (Kaić-Rak i Antonić, 1990). Uvidom u obrađene podatke utvrđeno je da je prosječan dnevni energetski unos manji od preporučene vrijednosti za obje skupine ispitanika. Prosječan dnevni unos proteina, ugljikohidrata i kolesterola veći je od preporuka, dok se unos zasićenih, te polinezasićenih masti nalazi unutar preporuka. Unos prehrambenih vlakana u muškaraca blizu je gornje granice preporuka, dok je kod žena primijećen unos viši od preporuka. Doprinosi ugljikohidrata i masti ukupnom dnevnom energetskom unosu za obje skupine ispitanika nalaze se unutar preporučenih vrijednosti, a unos proteina za obje skupine iznad je preporučenih vrijednosti. Na temelju dobivenih rezultata može se zaključiti kako ispitani studenti jednim dijelom udovoljavaju zahtjevima zdravih prehrambenih navika, dok drugim dijelom odstupaju od istih. Kako bi sveobuhvatno zadovoljili zahtjeve zdrave prehrane, studente, pa tako i širu populaciju, potrebno je pravilno educirati o zdravim prehrambenim navikama i prijeko potrebnoj fizičkoj aktivnosti. U toj nakani posebno je bitna pomoć stručnih osoba, među kojima su i ljekarnici, koji kroz savjetodavnu ulogu i individualni pristup mogu pokazati doprinos.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this diploma thesis was to establish the daily energy intake and macronutrients consumption of students of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry (University of Zagreb), and based on the results, to conclude the extent to which they match the recommended dietary standards of an adequate food intake for the mentioned population group. The study included 9 males and 21 females aged 22 to 24 years. The dietetic method used in this study is a four-day food diary. The filled out food diaries were processed in the Microsoft Excel 2016 program using the USDA charts and national charts (Kaić-Rak and Antonić, 1990) with nutritional values for food and drink. The data analysis shows that the mean daily energy intake for both groups of participants is lower than the recommended values. While the mean dietary intake of protein, carbohydrate and cholesterol is above the recommended levels, the mean intake of saturated and polyunsaturated fats is within the recommendations. Also, while the mean intake of dietary fiber in men was close to the top limit of the recommendation, in women it was higher than the recommended levels. The contribution of carbohydrate and fat to total caloric intake was within the recommendations for both men and women. The contribution of protein to total caloric intake was above the recommendation. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the students in one part meet the requirements of healthy eating habits, while in the other they deviate from the same. In order to fully meet the requirements of healthy eating, it is necessary to properly educate students, and even the wider population, about healthy eating habits and the necessary physical activity. To accomplish this, the help of professionals is needed, including pharmacists, whose individual approach and consultation can make a contribution.
