Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to assess the influence of the nutritional factor on lipid metabolism in young military men.
 Materials and methods. The objects of the study were young conscripted men aged 19.3±1.2, who feed on combined arms ration (n=71). Lipid metabolism indicators (cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein, very low density lipoproteins and atherogenic index) were assessed in military men. For this purpose, chromatography-mass spectrometry (Beckman Coulter AU480 automatic biochemical analyzer) was used. The study was conducted in the consultative and diagnostic polyclinic of the medical and diagnostic center, Military Medical Academy. The assessment of the studied indicators was made 60 days apart in the autumn-winter period. Nonparametric methods were used for statistical processing of experimental data. Risk analysis of the potential influence of the nutritional factor on lipid metabolism was carried out.
 Results. Differences in the lipoprotein content in the servicemen blood serum at the beginning and end of trial were random. Levels of cholesterol levels and low density lipoproteins, as well as atherogenic index decreased significantly.
 Conclusion. During the study, no statistically significant negative changes in lipid metabolism were found.
 Risk assessment of potential violation of the nutritional status in young military men indicates a favorable effect of nutrition on their lipid metabolism.
