Abstract

S obzirom na važnost pravilne prehrane za fizički i mentalni razvoj tijekom djetinjstva, cilj ovoga rada bio je procijeniti prehrambeni unos školske djece u dvije osnovne škole tijekom jedne školske godine analizom školskih jelovnika. Skupina povrća je izdvojena i detaljno proučena, jer adekvatan unos povrća pomaže u prevenciji kroničnih bolesti, jer je povrće važan izvor vitamina, mineralnih tvari i vlakana u prehrani. Rad je obuhvatio školske jelovnike za školsku djecu od 1. do 4. razreda, a podaci su analizirani u računalnom programu Prehrana. Prehrambeni unos energije i hranjivih tvari te unos povrća su uspoređivani unutar iste škole s obzirom na sezonu jesen/zima i proljeće/ljeto te između dvije osnovne škole. Analiza rezultata je utvrdila statistički značajnu razliku u unosu natrija (p=0,006) i magnezija (p=0,021) između sezona u osnovnoj školi 1. Rezultati su pokazali da postoji statistički značajna razlika u unosu skupine crvenog i narančastog povrća (p=0,002) te skupine ostalog povrća (p=0,044) između dvije osnovne škole. U obje osnovne škole prosječan dnevni unos povrća je manji s obzirom na preporuke, što je također utvrđeno i za prosječan dnevni unos energije i vlakana.

Abstract (english)

Regarding the importance of adequate nourishment for physical and mental development during childhood, the aim of this study was to evaluate nutritional food intake among school children in two primary schools during the period of one school-year, applying the method analysis of food in school menus. The group of vegetables is separated and examined in detail due adequate intake of vegetables helps in the prevention of chronical diseases because vegetables are an important nutritional source of vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre. The study included school menus from the first to the fourth class and the data were analysed and fed into computer programme "Prehrana". Food intake, energy, nutrients and vegetables are compared within the same school, taking into consideration autumn/winter and spring/summer seasons, and between two primary schools, respectively. The result analysis has shown a statistically significant difference in sodium (p=0,006) and magnesium (p=0,021) intake between seasons in primary school no.1. The results have shown that, between the schools, there is a statistically significant difference in group red and orange vegetable (p=0,002) intake and intake of group other vegetables as well (p=0,044). In both schools, the average daily vegetable intake and an average daily intake of energy and dietary fibre is lower than recommended.
