Challenges in Achieving Adequate Dietary Status of Women
Sponsor: Institute of Nutrition, Slovenia (Nutris)
Summary
The aim of the study is to investigate the dietary habits of women of reproductive age (20-49 years). We aim to obtain epidemiological data on the intake and adequacy of key macronutrients and micronutrients, as well as to explore associations with various health indicators. Additionally, we will focus on the nutritional status of subgroups with specific dietary practices, such as vegetarians and vegans.
