Background. The use of questionnaires on diet is a key approach in the field of nutrition. This study proposes a questionnaire on diet
content developed by a team of authors from the Department of Biomedicine of the Educational-Scientific Center "Institute of Biology and
Medicine" of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. The questionnaire was formed considering the food preferences and habits of young
people living in Ukraine.
Methods. Based on the analysis of questionnaires created by foreign authors, our own version of the questionnaire regarding daily diet
was developed.
Results. A team of authors from the Department of Biomedicine created a questionnaire on diet and eating habits, which contains 41 questions. The
questionnaire is an important tool for collecting data on the eating habits and needs of a certain population group, in particular students.
Conclusions. The use of the questionnaire will help specialists understand what daily diet the respondent follows. The proposed
questionnaire can be used independently and in comprehensive studies of people's health.
