Abstract

Cilj ovog rada je bio utvrditi prosječan dnevni unos folata validiranim upitnikom o učestalosti konzumiranja hrane i pića, FFQ (Food Frequency Questionnire) u osoba sa šećernom bolesti. Adekvatan unos folata ima važnu ulogu u primarnoj prevenciji određenih bolesti. Ukoliko je nedostatan unos folata dolazi među ostalim i do povećanja razine homocisteina (kao rezultat nedostatka folata, vitamina B12 i vitamina B6) što se povezuje s kardiovaskularnim bolestima. Osobe sa šećernom bolesti imaju povećani rizik od kardiovaskularnih bolesti. Cilj rada, stoga je bio, utvrditi unos folata hranom i suplementima. U studiju je uključeno 60 osoba dobi od 21 do 80 godina, od čega je bilo 50 % žena i 50 % muškaraca. Analizom podataka o prehrambenom unosu folata zaključeno je da osobe oboljele od dijabetesa ne unose dovoljno folata. Promicanje većeg unosa folata i za ovu populacijsku skupinu bilo bi poželjno.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this study was to determine the average daily intake of folate by validated questionnaire on frequency of consumption of food and beverages, FFQ (Food Frequency Questionnire) in people with diabetes. Adequate intake of folate has an important role in primary prevention of several diseases. If there is insufficient intake of folate, among other things, the result would be increased level of homocysteine (as a result of the lack of vitamin B12 and vitamin B6). Inadequate intake of folate is also associated with cardiovascular disease and increased mortality. People with diabetes have increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to determine intake of folate and food by supplements. The study included 60 people age of 21-80, of which 50% were females and 50% were men. The analysis of data on dietary intake of folate concluded that people with diabetes do not consume enough folate. Promoting a greater intake of folate in the whole population would be desirable.
