title: [Assessment of food intake in a group of students at the Medical University of Cracow].
abstract: The aim of this study was the evaluation of the frequency of individual food products intake and food choice in 246 female and 87 male students of the Cracow Medical School. Food consumption quality was estimated using the Questionnaire of Frequency of Food Products Intake). This study was conducted in autumn-winter (from October to January) period of 2001. The most frequent faults were: small consumption of fish, peas, beans and milk, cheese curds in both groups. In the male group we also observed too small fresh vegetables and fruit and coarse-milled cereals consumption. Men consumed (4-6 times a week) meat, sausages, sweet drinks and alcohol more frequently than women. The diets of the female students were more diversified.
