Abstract
The primary prevention of a significant number of diseases today is based on the principles of a healthy lifestyle which are the most important conditions for maintaining and strengthening the health of the population. At the same time, one of the main tasks is to optimize the nutritional status, preserve and improve the health of certain groups of the population and, above all, children and adolescents. The purpose of the work is a hygienic assessment of the characteristics of the nutritional status and nutritional health of young students and the scientific substantiation of recommendations for their optimization. It has been established that the insufficient level of knowledge of the basics of a healthy lifestyle and the existing shortcomings in the organization of nutrition of adolescents, as well as economic factors, lead to an inadequate nutritional status of students in secondary professional education, which is expressed in the low energy value of the diet, its imbalance and lack of diversity, as well as its low provision with macronutrients, vitamins and minerals. There is a significant increase in the incidence of diseases of the digestive system from junior to senior years, which allows us to consider college education as a risk factor for diseases of this class.
