dc.description.abstractTHIS STUDY AIMED TO COMPARE THE DIET QUALITY OF DIFFERENT DIETARY PATTERNS AMONG COLLEGE STUDENTS FROM LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES, INCLUDING VEGETARIANS, VEGANS, AND OMNIVORES DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. A CROSS-SECTIONAL, OBSERVATIONAL, MULTICENTER STUDY WAS CONDUCTED INCLUDING A NON- PROBABILISTIC SAMPLE OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS FROM 10 COUNTRIES. UNIVERSITY STUDENTS WERE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STUDY THROUGH SOCIAL NETWORK PLATFORMS. PARTICIPANTS WERE SELF-REPORTED TO HAVE FOLLOWED A SPECIFIC DIETARY PATTERN; EITHER THE PRUDENT DIET, WESTERN DIET, OVO-DAIRY-VEGETARIAN DIET, FISH-VEGETARIAN DIET, STRICT VEGETARIAN DIET (VEGAN) OR OTHER. THE LAST THREE PATTERNS (VEGETARIANS AND VEGANS) WERE GROUPED AS FOLLOWING A PLANT-BASED DIET. A SELF-ASSESSMENT SURVEY WAS USED TO EVALUATE HEALTHY EATING HABITS USING A QUESTIONNAIRE WITH VALUES BETWEEN 1 (DO NOT CONSUME) AND 5 (CONSUME) FOR A TOTAL OF 9?45 POINTS (HIGHER VALUES REPRESENT BETTER EATING HABITS). UNHEALTHY HABITS WERE ASSESSED WITH NINE QUESTIONS. A TOTAL OF 4,809 STUDENTS FILLED OUT THE QUESTIONNAIRE, AND THE MAJORITY OF THEM WERE FEMALES (73.7%). A HIGH PERCENTAGE HAVE BEEN IN LOCKDOWN FOR MORE THAN 5 MONTHS AND WERE IN LOCKDOWN WHEN THE SURVEY WAS RELEASED. 74.3% WERE SELF-REPORTED TO FOLLOW A PRUDENT DIET, WHILE 11.4% REPORTED FOLLOWING A WESTERN DIETARY PATTERN AND 8.8% A PLANT-BASED DIET. WHEN COMPLIANCE WITH HEALTHY AND UNHEALTHY DIETARY HABITS WAS ANALYZED, ALTHOUGH ALL GROUPS HAD LOW COMPLIANCE, THE PLANT-BASED DIET GROUP (56.09 ± 6.11) PERFORMED BETTER THAN THE WESTERN DIET GROUP (48.03 ± 5.99). THE TOTAL DIET QUALITY SCORE WAS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER FOR PLANT-BASED DIET FOLLOWERS, WHO ALSO TENDED TO BETTER ACHIEVE THE RECOMMENDATIONS THAN OMNIVOROUS STUDENTS, ESPECIALLY THE ONES FOLLOWING A WESTERN DIET. THESE RESULTS PRESENT EVIDENCE THAT YOUNG ADULTS SUCH AS COLLEGE-AGED STUDENTS HAVE UNHEALTHY DIETARY HABITS. HOWEVER, THE ONES WHO FOLLOW A PLANT-BASED DIET SUCH AS VEGETARIANS AND VEGANS EXHIBIT BETT
