[Problems of nutrition in school children in Subotica and its importance to health].
The aim of this paper was to determine the characteristics of the nutrition of primary school children in Subotica and to perceive the health hazards of such nutrition. A deficit of animal proteins, certain vitamins and minerals as well as surplus of fats was determined in the quality follow-up of additional meal in schools. In family nutrition, apart from the already known qualitative deficits, an irregular rhythm of taking meals was also evidenced, because about 24% of pupils do not have breakfast. The established irregularities of family and communal feeding can be one of the causes of appearance of the diseases due to deficient or surplus nutrition in pupils of Subotica. Because of this it is necessary to provide optimal communal feeding and to include as much pupils as possible in the aim of correcting family nutrition and the prevention of nutritive and health hazards.
