Abstract

Praćenje stanja uhranjenosti djece i njihovih prehrambenih navika veoma je važno kako za pravilan rast i razvoj djeteta tako i za procjenu i sprječavanje rizika za zdravlje u kasnijoj životnoj dobi. Stanje uhranjenosti i prehrambene navike usko su povezane tijekom cijelog života no ta je povezanost najizraženija u periodu rasta i razvoja djeteta i zato je jako važno znati što, koliko,zašto, kako i na koji način valja provoditi prehranu djeteta u toj dobi.
Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je procijeniti stanje uhranjenosti djece predškolske dobi od 2 do 7 godina , utvrditi postoji li razlika po dobi i spolu u stupnju uhranjenosti te analizirati prehrambene navike djece prema Prehrambenim standardima te iste analizirati po dobi. Za potrebe ovog istraživanja proveden je anketni upitnik putem Google Obrasca koji je obuhvatio 89-oro roditelja djece u dobi od 2 do 7 godina, od čega je bilo 56,18 % dječaka 43,82 % djevojčica.
Rezultati su pokazali da 66% djece ima normalnu uhranjenost, 12% pretilih. 6% prekomjerne tjelesne težine i 16% pothranjenih. Analizom rezultata po dobi najveći postotak normalno uhranjene djece je u dobi od 4 i 5 godina, ali isto tako i najveći postotak pretilosti, dok najveći postotak pothranjenosti je u mlađoj dobnoj skupini od 2 i 3 godine. Analizom rezultata po spolu pokazao se veći postotak pretilosti kod dječaka, a djevojčice su u postotku više pothranjene. U ovome radu analiziran je unos glavnih skupina namirnica , njihova učestalost i zastupljenost po dobi te uočile njegove nepravilnosti i nedostatnosti. Analizom prehrambenih navika saznajemo da veliki postotak djece (52%) svakodnevno konzumira slatkiše i grickalice kao i 55% roditelja koji imaju istu naviku konzumiranja grickalica ispred televizora.
Prehrambene navike se uče i usvajaju, a roditelji su prvi i najvažniji učitelji svoga djeteta.

Abstract (english)

Monitoring the state of nutrition of children and their eating habits is very important both for the proper growth and development of the child and for the assessment and prevention of health risks in later life. The state of nutrition and eating habits are closely related throughout life, but this connection is most pronounced in the period of growth and development of the child, and that is why it is very important to know what, how much, why, how and in what way the diet of the child should be carried out at that age.
The aim of this study was to assess the state of nutrition of preschool children from 2 to 7 years of age, to determine whether there is a difference in age and sex in the degree of nutrition, and to analyze the eating habits of children according to nutritional standards and analyze them by age. For the purposes of this survey, a survey questionnaire was conducted through the Google Form, which included 89 parents of children aged 2 to 7 years, of which 56.18 % of boys were 43.82 % of girls.
The results showed that 66% of children have normal nutrition, 12% obese, 6% overweight and 16% malnourished. By analyzing the results by age, the highest percentage of normally nourished children is between the ages of 4 and 5, but also the highest percentage of obesity, while the highest percentage of malnutrition is in the younger age group of 2 and 3 years. Analysis of the results by gender showed a higher percentage of obesity in boys, and girls were more malnourished. This paper analyzes the intake of the main groups of foods , their frequency and representation by age and noted its irregularities and inadequacies. By analyzing eating habits, we learn that a large percentage of children (52%) consume sweets and snacks every day as do 55% of parents who have the same habit of consuming snacks in front of the TV.
Eating habits are taught and adopted, and parents are the first and most important teachers of their child.
