Healthy Eating Habits for a Better Life

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the main characteristics of dietary behavior among young people and their perception of what a healthy diet means. The study is based on an online alimentation questionnaire with 42 questions referring the daily eating habits. The participants (students) who answered and submitted these questionnaires were aged between 18 and 35 years. The results of our study indicate that a high percentage of the participants consider breakfast important and they usually eat cereals and eggs. Based on their answers, a list of their favorite vegetables and fruits was obtained. This study revealed that most people involved have a relatively healthy eating style and a good understanding of the importance of the daily diet and exercises for the state of health.
