Produktbeschreibung

The general health of individuals during the period of growth and development is related to their lifestyle, which has repercussions on eating habits, body fat and blood pressure. In this sense, we can understand the epidemic of obesity and chronic diseases related to excessive and unbalanced food consumption, which have been a defining feature of recent decades. Scientific evidence shows that the development of various diseases begins in childhood and adolescence, especially chronic non-communicable diseases (CNCDs), which are linked to society's lifestyle. This phenomenon has raised interest in the behavioural factors that can lead to these diseases. Since the fundamental pillars in the treatment of nutritional disorders and the prevention of chronic diseases are changes in eating habits and the practice of physical activity, it is necessary to discuss the assessment of food consumption in order to identify the eating habits of young people and prevent the emergence of associated comorbidities.
