Abstract

ABSTRACT. A significant portion of vitamin D, which is essential for important processes of vital activity, a person gets from food. The purpose of this study was to assess the level of consumption by young males and females of foods containing vitamin D3. One hundred and two first-year students (females — 78.4 %, males — 21.6 % between the ages of 17 and 22) participated in the study voluntarily. Data collection was carried out by questioning. The frequency of consumption and food preferences for 22 products containing vitamin D were assessed. The evaluation was carried out on a 5-point rating scale. Statistical processing of the questionnaires was carried out using the SPSS program. The results are analyzed for approval of the points of the questionnaire. It turned out that the coefficient of Alpha Cronbach is 0,912 and 0,896 for consumption and food preferences respectively. This indicates a high consistency of the items on the questionnaire about the frequency of consumption and food preferences of foods rich in vitamin D. The consumption of foods rich in vitamin D is at a pain lower level than the respondents' desire to consume them. The reasons for low consumption may be price unavailability of the product. For some products, there is a very high difference of ratings, which indicates that the level of well-being of the respondent have a great influence on food preferences. Food preferences in this case, most likely, play a secondary role. The results obtained suggest that foods rich in vitamin D are not among the preferences of young people who took part in the study. It should be noted that, low intake of foods rich in vitamin D may also be related to the global trend. This fact is of concern because the lack of vitamin D in young people leads to negative consequences, including the emergence of diseases of various kinds. Key Words: vitamin D, first-year students, 5-point rating scale.
关于学生食用含维生素D产品的频率和食物偏好的研究
摘要人体从食物中获取维生素D的很大一部分,而维生素D对于生命活动的重要过程至关重要。这项研究的目的是评估年轻男性和女性对含维生素D3食物的摄取量。102名17至22岁的一年级学生(女生78.4%,男生21.6%)自愿参加了这项研究。数据收集是通过询问进行的。对22种含维生素D产品的食用频率和食物偏好进行了评估。评估采用5分制进行。使用SPSS程序对问卷进行统计处理。对结果进行分析,以确定问卷的要点。结果表明,消费偏好和食物偏好的Alpha Cronbach系数分别为0.912和0.896。这表明问卷上关于富含维生素D的食物的消费频率和食物偏好的项目高度一致。富含维生素D的食物的消费水平远远低于受访者的消费意愿。低消费的原因可能是产品的价格不可得。对于一些产品,评分差异非常大,这表明被调查者的幸福水平对食物偏好有很大的影响。在这种情况下,食物偏好很可能起着次要作用。研究结果表明,参与研究的年轻人并不喜欢富含维生素D的食物。值得注意的是,低摄入富含维生素D的食物也可能与全球趋势有关。这一事实令人关注,因为年轻人缺乏维生素D会导致不良后果,包括出现各种疾病。关键词:维生素D;一年级学生;五分制量表
