Sažetak

Introduction and objective: Dietary habits are acquired in the early stages of life. During the University years young people are usually faced with independence for the first time and tend to create their own lifestyle and dietary habits. Therefore, the goal of this study was to examine dietary habits of students of the University of Mostar, and to determine the extent to which they match with guidelines for proper nutrition.
Methods: The study was performed using an anonymous, one-time questionnaire, with closed- ended questions, that included the data about gender, frequency of daily meals and breakfast, about the amount and type of liquids consumed, as well as the snacks, consumption of different kinds of foods on a weekly basis, and the usage of nutritional supplements.
Results: The collected data are expressed on the whole study group, as well as on the subgroups created considering gender. Compared to guidelines for different kinds of foods our data show that the consummation of fruits and vegetables is rather low, as for the fish. The obtained data about dietary habits show some small differences among the gender.
Conclusion: This study shows deviation from the guidelines for healthy lifestyle. It is advisable to organize different workshops and lectures on this topic, to educate students about proper nutrition that comply with their physical needs.
