Abstract

Pretilost je epidemijska bolest koju se pokušava suzbiti na mnoge načine. Jedan od njih je uvođenje mediteranskog načina prehrane koji se pokazao učinkovitim u liječenju pretilosti i smanjenju rizika od mnogih bolesti i smatra se pravilnom prehranom. Cilj ovog rada bio je ispitati utjecaj mediteranske prehrane na zdravlje i redukciju tjelesne mase 3 pretila pacijenta liječena u dnevnoj bolnici KB „Dubrava“, te procijeniti kakvoću mediteranske prehrane modificiranim mediteranskim indeksom kakvoće prehrane. Mediteranska prehrana procijenjena je na način da je hrana podijeljena u 11 skupina namirnica i svaka skupina bodovana sa 0-5 bodova te je najveći ukupni zbroj bodova iznosio 55. Što je veći broj bodova, bolje je pridržavanje mediteranskih principa prehrane. Mediteranski način prehrane doveo je do redukcije tjelesne mase pacijenata u prosijeku za 7 % te do smanjenja rezultata antropometrijskih i biokemijskih mjerenja. Modificirani mediteranski indeks se pokazao kao učinkovita metoda ocjenjivanja kakvoće mediteranske prehrane i u korelaciji je s redukcijom pretilosti i poboljšanjem zdravstvenih parametara.

Abstract (english)

Obesity is an epidemic disease that is managed in many ways. One of them is the adoption of the Mediterranean diet that has proven to be effective in treating obesity and reducing the risk of many diseases. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of the Mediterranean diet on health and the reduction of body weight for 3 obese patients treated in daily hospital „Dubrava“, and to evaluate the quality of the Mediterranean diet using the modified Mediterranean Diet Score. Mediterranean diet was evaluated by dividing food in 11 groups and each group was scored with 0-5 points which leads to total sum of 55 points. The higher score means better adherence to the principles of the Mediterranean diet. The Mediterranean diet has led to the reduction of body weight of patients in average of 7 % and to improvement the results of anthropometrics and biochemical measurements. Modified MedDietScore proved to be an effective method of evaluating the quality of the Mediterranean diet and is correlated with the reduction of obesity and improving the health outcomes.
