Abstract

One of the most important issues of modern medical science is the metabolic syndrome, the origins of which begin in childhood and adolescence. Purpose: To study the dietary peculiarities of Ukrainian adolescents with obesity and to identify the eating disorders on the background of metabolic syndrome. A survey on the nutrition of Ukrainian adolescents was conducted on the base of Institute of Children and Adolescents Health Care of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine. As a result, a sample of 200 adolescents with obesity (age 14 – 18 years: 100 boys and 100 girls) was formed. Thus, irregular and unbalanced diet naturally causes digestive disorders, abnormalities in eating behavior and contributes to the formation of comorbid pathologies such as obesity and metabolic syndrome. Adolescents with obesity experienced significant zinc and magnesium deficiency in the body (φ < 0.05).
