dc.description.abstractEATING IS A VOLUNTARY AND CONSCIOUS PROCESS, SO IT IS ABLE TO BE EDUCATED. PROPER NUTRITION IS THE BASIS OF GOOD HEALTH AND THIS JUSTIFIES THAT IN MORE DEVELOPED SOCIETIES THERE IS A GROWING CONCERN FOR FOOD IN YOUNG PEOPLE. THE MAJORITY OF YOUNG PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH DIETARY INFORMATION THAT ALLOWS THEM TO HAVE A BALANCED DIET, THEIR DECISIONS ARE INFLUENCED BY THE TYPE OF FAMILY FEEDING, THE BEHAVIOR OF OTHER YOUNG PEOPLE, ADVERTISING MESSAGES ABOUT FAST FOOD, SNACKS AND OTHER CONSUMPTION VARIABLES THAT OFTEN DISAGREE WITH THE REGULATED AND HARMONIOUS DIETARY GUIDELINES. OBJECTIVES: EVALUATE THE EATING HABITS OF A UNIVERSITY POPULATION. METHODS: 100 UNIVERSITY-LEVEL STUDENTS BETWEEN 18 AND 25 YEARS OLD PARTICIPATED. A QUESTIONNAIRE WAS APPLIED TO KNOW THEIR EATING HABITS, IN ADDITION TO ASKING ABOUT THEIR WEIGHT AND SIZE. RESULTS: BMI WAS 23.48 ± 3.35. SOME RELEVANT EATING HABITS AND LIFESTYLES WERE: 45% OF THE STUDENTS LIVE WITH BOTH PARENTS, MOSTLY WOMEN (28%), IN 44% OF THE POPULATION AT LEAST ONE OF THE PARENTS WAS OVERWEIGHT AND / OR OBESE. THE MOST CONSUMED FOODS FOR BREAKFAST WERE MILK (54%), CEREALS (43%), FRUIT (32%) AND YOGURT (26%). 9% COMBINE MILK, CEREAL AND FRUIT, FOLLOWED BY 27% MIXING ONLY CEREAL WITH MILK, 59% OF THE POPULATION SAID TO HAVE BREAKFAST ALWAYS OR ALMOST ALWAYS. THE MOST CONSUMED SNACK WAS SANDWICH (34%), FOLLOWED BY FRUIT (18%). CONCLUSIONS: THE EATING HABITS OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS ARE GOOD IN GENERAL, HOWEVER, THESE COULD BE IMPROVED IF MORE HOURS ARE DEVOTED TO PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES THAT ARE SACRIFICED FOR CLASS SCHEDULES. THE POPULATION SAYS THAT IT IS GOOD TO HAVE BREAKFAST, HOWEVER, THEY DO NOT DO IT IN THE RIGHT WAY BECAUSE THEY CONSUME MAINLY A SINGLE GROUP OF FOODS, WITHOUT COMPENSATE THIS THROUGHOUT THE DAY SINCE THE CONSUMPTION OF JUNK FOOD IS HIGH.
