Sažetak
Introduction: Students' success in acquiring knowledge and skills during schooling, evaluated by results and achievement of examinations according to predetermined criteria, is called school success. School failure is manifested as a permanent failure in all or some of subjects, repeating the class, ending schooling, but also student's feeling of failure. Among causes of school failure are health factors: sleep, nutrition habits, nutritional status, physical activity and chronic illnesses for which students are absent from school and taking medication and therapy may affect the learning process.
Aim: To show relationship between dietary habits, nutritional status and school performance.
Methods: Search of literature in bibliographic databases PubMed and Hrčak, from 2008 to 2018, was performed using keywords in Croatian and English.
Results: Previous research has shown that nutritional status - undernutrition and obesity, is associated with poorer school success. Healthy eating habits, proper meal schedules, healthy food intake, low consumption of sweetened drinks and fast food, are associated with better educational outcomes.
Conclusion: Understanding of relationship between healthy nutrition and nutritional status with school success will contribute to raising the awareness of scientific and professional public about the importance of developing and maintaining healthy living habits and normal body mass during schooling periods in order to achieve academic potential and maintain and enhance health.
