Abstract
Aim:The COVID-19 pandemic has had major consequences on our habits and style of living. For this study, an online questionnaire was conducted online, with a total of 103 participants. This survey aimed to determine the pandemic's implications on nutrition and behavior patterns. Results: During quarantine, the feelings of hunger and satiety did suffer changes: 17% of the cases reported a decrease, compared to the vast majority (55%), who experienced high levels of hunger. Three-quarters of participants reported either an enhanced or at least a similar intake of main meals and snacks between meals. Boredom and stress proved to be the central factors determining these results. When the participants were asked about the level of physical activity, a small number answered that the frequency of training grew. Meanwhile, the subjects who moved occasionally had more time to do it at home. Most of the participants (75%) stated that the length of leisure time was "more than sufficient". Conclusion: As the pandemic is still ongoing, more research should be made on a larger population, to obtain more accurate results.
