Usporedba znanja, prehrambenog ponaÅ”anja i unosa mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda djece Å”kolske dobi s obzirom na spol i dob
Besides traditional nutrients, milk and dairy products contain some health promoting components. The aim of this study was to detect the frequency and preferences among dairy products in school children according to age and gender. The subjects were 234 healthy children at age 10-11 years and 14-15 years from two primary schools in Zagreb. Number of participants was well balanced according to age and gender. Dietary data were collected using specially designed food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). By additional questionnaire some anthropometric parameters as well as food preferences, attitudes and nutrition knowledge on milk and dairy products were collected. According to the results the intake of milk is significantly different (p< 0.05) to gender but not to age. 91 % children consume milk, 2.3 cups/day in average. Soft drinks, fruit juices, beverages and similar drinks are consumed more often than milk. Pudding and ice cream had the highest frequency among dairy products consumed. Milk and dairy frequency intake according to age and gender are still not significantly different. Children mostly consume fresh milk (68.7%). Girls at age 14-15 years consume light milk ( ā¤1.6 % fat) more than younger children and boys at the same age. 86 % of children is well informed about nutritional facts linked to milk and dairy products and they are mostly educate by parents. Among anthropometric parameters a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) was observed in height with regard to gender, only among older children, and for both height and, weight and body mass indeks (BMI) with regard to age.Mlijeko i mlijeÄni proizvodi osim tradicionalnih hranjivih sastojaka
sadrže i tvari koje povoljno utjeÄu na zdravlje. Cilj ovog rada bio je utvrditi uÄestalost i vrste namirnica koje konzumiraju djeca, te naÄin odabira navedenih proizvoda s obzirom na dob i spol. Istraživanjem je obuhvaÄeno 234 zdrave djece dobi 10-11 godina i 14-15 godina iz dvije osnovne Å”kole u Zagrebu. Unutar navedenog broja djece uravnotežen je bio broj s obzirom na dob i spol. DijetetiÄki podaci prikupljeni su pomoÄu posebno prireÄenih upitnika o uÄestalosti konzumiranja (FFQ) namirnica iz skupine mlijeko i mlijeÄni proizvodi. PomoÄu dodatnog upitnika prikupljeni su neki antropometrijski parametri (tjelesna masa i visina), te preferencije, prehrambeno ponaÅ”anje i stupanj prehrambene edukacije vezane uz mlijeko i mlijeÄne proizvode. Dobiveni rezultati ukazuju na statistiÄki znaÄajnu razliku (p<0,05) u konzumiranju mlijeka meÄu djecom s obzirom na spol, ali ne i dob. Od ukupnog broja djece 91 % konzumira mlijeko, prosjeÄno 2,3 Å”alice na dan. Sokovi, gazirana piÄa i sliÄni napici ÄeÅ”Äe se konzumiraju od mlijeka. Puding i sladoled imaju najveÄu frekvenciju konzumiranja od proizvoda iz skupine mlijeko i mlijeÄni proizvodi. Ipak, uÄestalost konzumiranja namirnica iz ove skupine statistiÄki se znaÄajno ne razlikuje s obzirom na dob i spol. Djeca uglavnom konzumiraju svježe mlijeko (68,7%). DjevojÄice dobi 14-15 godina konzumiraju light mlijeko ( ā¤1,6 % m.m.) viÅ”e od svojih vrÅ”njaka i mlaÄe djece. 86 % djece je dobro informirano o prehrambenim Äinjenicama vezanim za mlijeko i mlijeÄne proizvode i uglavnom su educirani od strane roditelja. Od antropometrijskih parametara statistiÄki znaÄajna razlika (p<0,05) utvrÄena je za visinu, s obzirom na spol samo meÄu starijom djecom, te za visinu, tjelesnu masu i BMI s obzirom na dob
Frequency of dairy products in preschool centersā meals with regard to seasons
Mlijeko i mlijeÄni proizvodi izvor su velikog broja esencijalnih nutrijenata za ljudski organizam, ali i komponente koje imaju pozitivni utjecaj na ljudsko zdravlje. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je utvrditi prehrambenu vrijednost i uÄestalost mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda u obrocima koji se nude u predÅ”kolskim ustanovama s obzirom na godiÅ”nje doba. Da bi se utvrdila energijska i nutritivna vrijednost, kao i uÄestalost odreÄenih namirnica u obroku, koriÅ”teni su mjeseÄni jelovnici za Äetiri godiÅ”nja doba. Prema dobivenim rezultatima obroci energijski odgovaraju, dok proteina ima viÅ”e nego li se preporuÄa (154, 3 %). Energijski udjel mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda u prosjeku iznosi 14,3 %, Å”to je s obzirom na potrebe djece u dobi 4-6 godina, manje od preporuÄenog. Ti proizvodi bili su u prosjeku 6,5 puta/5 dana, Å”to znaÄi 1,6 servirnih jedinica po danu. Mlijeko je najzastupljenije u dnevnim jelovnicima, dok je jogurt zastupljen jednom do dva puta, a sir jednom na tjedan, a Äak i rjeÄe. Mlijeko i mlijeÄni proizvodi bili su izvor 362 mg (45,5 % DRI) kalcija, 272 mg (354,4 % DRI) fosfora, 36,3 mg (27,9 % DRI) magnezija i 0,5 mg (83,3 % DRI) vitamina B2. Mlijeko i mlijeÄni proizvodi u dnevnom jelovniku predÅ”kolskih ustanova trebali bi biti ÄeÅ”Äe zastupljeni. S obzirom na godiÅ”nje doba, statistiÄki znaÄajna razlika utvrÄena je uglavnom izmeÄu proljeÄa i ljeta, s obzirom na zastupljenost mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda, a s obzirom na energijsku i nutritivnu vrijednost uglavnom izmeÄu ponuÄenih obroka u proljeÄe i jesen.It is well known that dairy products contain a great number of essential nutrients having positive influence on human health. The aim of this study wasmto determine the nutritive value of meals and frequency of dairy products in preschool centersā meals with regard to season. For assessment of energy and nutritive value as well ascertain food frequency in daily diet during four seasons the monthly reports menu were used. According to the results the energy gained by the meals was adequate. Proteins were present in high amount (154.3 % RDA). The energy fraction of dairy products in average was 14.3 % what is for children age 4-6 less than recommended. Those products were served in average 6.5 times/5 days what represented 1.6 serving units per day. Milk was present in daily meals on regular basis, yogurt was present twice and cheese ones a week or even less. Milk and dairy products ensured of 362 mg (45.5 % DRI) of calcium, 272 mg (354.4 % DRI) of phosphorus, 36.3 mg (27.9 % DRI) of magnesium and 0.5 mg (83.3 % DRI) of vitamin B2. Thus, dairy products should be included at least twice in daily preschool meals. According to season significant difference was detected, mostly between spring and summer, with regard to milk and dairy products. With regard to energy and nutritive value difference between spring and autumn have been established
Assessment of nutritional status of gastroenterology patients in Croatia [Procjena nutritivnog statusa gastroenteroloŔkih bolesnika u Republici Hrvatskoj]
Malnutrition is a common feature of gastroenterological diseases. In this study, nutritional status of the patients admitted to Department of Gastroenterology at University Hospital Center Zagreb was assessed. Anthropometric, dietetic, biochemical methods and method of Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) was used. The study group included 284 patients admitted to the Hospital. Malnutrition, as defined by SGA, was found in 61.1% of the patients, of whom 75% were moderately and 25% severely malnourished. Those patients classified as moderately and extremely malnourished by SGA were found to have statistically lower values of BMI, albumin, total proteins, calcium, iron, triglycerides, cholesterol, vitamin A and lymphocytes as compared to those who were adequately nourished. The prevalence of malnutrition in hospitalized patients treated at the Department of Gastroenterology is high. The use of nutritional screening with multiple measures would be important in the early identification and treatment of these patients and would help decrease this high prevalence
Milk and dairy products in hotel daily menue
Cilj rada je utvrditi udio mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda kao znaÄajnih izvora energije, makronutrijenata, vitamina i minerala u prosjeÄnoj hotelskoj menu ponudi. U tu svrhu izvrÅ”ena je nutritivna analiza 66 cjelodnevnih menu ponuda (doruÄak, ruÄak, veÄera). Rezultati su statistiÄki obraÄeni i usporeÄeni sa preporukama, uz osvrt na potrebe gostiju srednje i starije životne dobi, oba spola. Dobiveni rezultati su pokazali da obroci nisu uravnoteženi, te da prevelik udio ukupne energijske vrijednosti potjeÄe od masti (prosjeÄno 47.95%) dok svega 37.57 % ukupne energije potjeÄe iz ugljikohidratnih izvora. Ukupna energijska vrijednost obroka bila je viÅ”a od preporuka za sve analizirane skupine gostiju. Udio energijske vrijednosti porijeklom iz mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda je 11% Å”to se može smatrati zadovoljavajuÄim. NajÄeÅ”Äe ponuÄena namirnica iz ove skupine bilo je mlijeko, dok je sladoled na drugom mjestu. Neophodno je poveÄati ponudu jogurta i ostalih mlijeÄno fermentiranih proizvoda, posebice u ponudi za goste starije životne dobi. Unosom mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda muÅ”karci i žene su zadovoljili 92% potreba za kalcijem obzirom na RDA preporuke, odnosno 61.80% potreba prema DRI preporukama za osobe starije životne dobi.The aim of this work was to determine the portion of milk and dairy products as a source of macronutrients, energy, vitamins and minerals in average hotel menus for some category of hotel guests. For this purpose the evaluation of 66 whole day meals (breakfast, lunch and supper) on daily menus was made. Meals were therefore mathematically and statistically analysed and compared with recommendations (RDA and DRI) for middle aged and elderly guests, both genders. The obtained results indicated that the meals should be balanced according to nutritional principles, because of too high energy share derived from fats (average 47.95%) while just about 37.57% of daily energy was from carbohydrates origin. The energy values were much higher than recommendations for both genders, respectively. The energy share from milk and dairy products origin was 11% of total energy what should be considered as a suitable. The most served dairy product was milk while the ice-cream took the second place. It is necessary to increase the yogurt and similar fermented products consumption, especially for the elderly guests. With milk and dairy products consumption males and females fulfill 92% RDA for calcium, and 61.80 % DRI for elderly,
respectively

Bezglutenski proizvodi namijenjeni osobama s celijakijom nisu dobar izvor folata i vitamina B12
The gluten-free diet, the only treatment in coeliac disease, can be nutritionally unbalanced and deficient in several nutrients. Gluten-free products contain much lower levels of B vitamins, especially lower folate concentrations than their gluten-containing counterparts. Folate intake is considered as a major dietary determinant of plasma homocysteine concentration in healthy population. Elevated homocysteine is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and has been associated with osteoporotic fractures, which are an increased risk factor in coeliac disease. The aim of this study is to determine dietary folate intake and plasma homocysteine concentration as metabolic markers of suboptimal intake of folate and B12 in Croatian coeliac patients living on a gluten-free diet. Subjects were 52 coeliac patients (83 % female, age 35Ā±13) adhering to a gluten-free diet. Blood samples were analyzed for plasma homocysteine, serum and red blood cell folate and serum B12. Quantitative food frequency questionnaire was used to measure dietary folate intake. Mean dietary folate intake was 206 mg of dietary folate equivalents (DFE), which was far below the national recommendation of 400 Āµg of DFE (or 200 Ī¼g of folic acid). Mean homocysteine was (9Ā±2) Ī¼mol/L (range from 5.42 to 13.90 Ī¼mol/L), while elevated homocysteine concentrations (>10 Ī¼mol/L) were found in 34 % of subjects. In conclusion, coeliac patients adhering to gluten-free diet included in this study showed low folate intake and suboptimal folate and vitamin B12 status, possibly due to low folate content in gluten-free products. Therefore, folate fortification or enrichment of gluten-free products could be beneficial for coeliac patients and it would be of great interest for the food industry.Bezglutenska prehrana, jedini lijek za oboljele od celijakije, može biti neuravnotežena zbog nedostataka nekih hranjivih tvari. Bezglutenski proizvodi sadrže manju koliÄinu vitamina B, osobito folata, nego sliÄni proizvodi koji sadrže gluten. U zdravih osoba koncentracija homocisteina u plazmi uglavnom ovisi o prehrambenom unosu folata. PoveÄana vrijednost homocisteina u posljednje se vrijeme povezuje s osteoporozom koja je uÄestala u osoba s celijakijom. Svrha je ovoga rada utvrditi unos folata i status homocisteina kao metaboliÄkoga biljega suboptimalnog unosa folata i vitamina B12 u osoba s celijakijom na podruÄju Republike Hrvatske. U istraživanju su sudjelovale 52 osobe s celijakijom koje su na bezglutenskoj prehrani (83 % žena, dobi 35Ā±13 godina). Analizom krvi utvrÄena je koncentracija homocisteina, folata u serumu i eritrocitima te vitamina B12 u serumu. Kvantitativni je upitnik za procjenu unosa hrane i piÄa upotrijebljen radi utvrÄivanja prehrambenog unosa folata. ProsjeÄni je unos folata bio 206 Āµg ekvivalenata folata (eng. dietary folate equivalents-DFE), Å”to je kudikamo manje od nacionalne preporuke koja navodi 400 Āµg DFE odnosno 200 Āµg folne kiseline. ProsjeÄna vrijednost homocisteina iznosila je 9Ā±2 Āµmol/L (raspon 5,42-13,90 Āµmol/L). PoveÄana vrijednost homocisteina (>10 Āµmol/L) utvrÄena je u 34 % ispitanika. Može se zakljuÄiti da osobe s celijakijom koje se pridržavaju bezglutenske prehrane, a sudjelovale su u ovom istraživanju, imaju mali unos folata i suboptimalan status folata i vitamina B12, vjerojatno zbog unosa folatom siromaÅ”nih bezglutenskih proizvoda. Stoga bi obogaÄivanje ili dodatak folata u bezglutenske proizvode mogao povoljno utjecati na osobe s celijakijom, te predstavljati izazov prehrambenoj industriji
Zastupljenost mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda u prehrani adolescenata s obzirom na spol i sredinu u kojoj žive
The aim of this study was to determine the portion of the milk and dairy products as source of energy, macronutrients and calcium in average daily diet of adolescents according to sex and living area. A group of four hundred and forty one adolescents (46 % from rural, and 54 % from urban area in Croatia), both sexes, between 15 to 18 years of age, who attended high school represented the study subject. Weight and height were determined using standard techniques and following the norms of the WHO. Food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) for mass and frequency as well as energy and nutritional components of dairy products intake were used. The results indicated that adolescents in urban area consumed statistically significant (p<0.05) higher amount of milk and dairy products. Higher intake of energy, protein and calcium from milk and dairy products among adolescents in urban area was also observed. Average intake of calcium according to recommendation (RDA) is adequate for sex and age among subjects in urban are. Lower calcium intake was observed among the girls. In terms of food types, higher fat content dairy products were consumed among adolescents in both living areas, while according to sex, girls mostly consumed less fat milk and dairy products. According to body mass index (BMI) adolescents in both living areas were nourished well.Cilj ovog rada bio je utvrditi udjel mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda, kao izvor energije, makronutrijenta i kalcija u prehrani adolescenata s obzirom na spol i sredinu u kojoj žive. Ispitanike je Äinila skupina od 441 srednjoÅ”kolskog uÄenika (46 % iz ruralne i 54 % iz urbane sredine u Hrvatskoj), oba spola, dobi 15-18 godina. Tjelesna masa i visina ispitanika utvrÄena je standardnom tehnikom utvrÄenom od WHO. Upitnik o uÄestalosti i vrsti konzumiranja (FFQ) namirnica iz skupine mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda, koriÅ”ten je i za utvrÄivanje mase konzumiranih namirnica. Na osnovi dobivenih podataka
utvrÄena je zastupljenost, te energetska i prehrambena vrijednost namirnica iz navedene skupine, u strukturi cjelodnevnih obroka. Rezultati ukazuju na statistiÄki znaÄajniji (p<0,05) udjel mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda u prehrani adolescenata iz urbane sredine. Stoga je utvrÄen i znaÄajniji unos energije, proteina i kacija iz navedene skupine namirica u istoj populacijskoj skupini. ProsjeÄni unos kalcija, s obzirom na preporuÄeni dnevni unos (RDA) adekvatan je u adolescenata iz urbane sredine s obizom na dob i spol. Ipak, niži unos kalcija utvrÄen je meÄu ispitanicima ženskog spola. Rezultati
ukazuju na znaÄajniju zastupljenost namirnica s veÄim udjelom masti u prehrani svih ispitanika. UtvrÄena je meÄutim razlika u odabiru namirnica s obzirom na spol, pa djevojke konzumiraju proizvode s manje masti. Prema indeksu mase tijela (BMI) svi ispitanici su adekvatno uhranjeni
Utjecaj nasljeÄa i okoliÅ”a na vrÅ”nu koÅ”tanu gustoÄu: pregled istraživanja u Hrvatskoj
One of the main determinants of who will develop osteoporosis is the amount of bone accumulated at peak bone density. There is poor agreement, however, on when peak bone density occurs. Ethnic differences were observed in age at peak bone density and their correlates. Since the diagnosis of osteoporosis and osteopaenia is based on the comparison between patientsā bone mineral density (BMD) and optimal peak bone density in healthy young people (T-score), it is of great importance that each country should provide its own reference peak bone density data. This review article presents our published results on peak bone density in Croatia and compares them with findings in other populations. Our research included 18 to 25-year-old students from Zagreb University and their parents. The results showed that peak bone mass in young Croatian women was achieved before the age of twenty, but BMD continued to increase after the mid-twenties in the long-bone cortical skeleton. BMD was comparable to the values reported by the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and other studies that included the same age groups, except for the cortical part of the radius, where it was signifi cantly lower. Men achieved peak bone density in the spine later than women, which cannot be explained by different diet or physical activity. As expected, heredity was more important for peak bone density than the environmental factors known to be important for bone health. However, the infl uence of heredity was not as strong as observed in most other populations. It was also weaker in the cortical than in the trabecular parts of the skeleton. Future research should include young adolescent population to defi ne the exact age of achieving peak bone density in different skeletal sites.VrÅ”na koÅ”tana gustoÄa je jedna od najvažnijih pretpostavki za nastanak osteoporoze. Poznati su riziÄni faktori za vrÅ”nu koÅ”tanu gustoÄu, ali vrijeme njezinog postizanja nije u potpunosti defi nirano. S obzirom na to da se dijagnoza osteoporoze i osteopenije temelji na usporedbi mineralne gustoÄe kosti (BMD) pojedinca s prosjeÄnom vrÅ”nom koÅ”tanom gustoÄom u mladoj, odrasloj populaciji (T vrijednost), vrlo je znaÄajno da svaka zemlja utvrdi vrijednosti vrÅ”ne koÅ”tane gustoÄe za svoju populaciju. U ovom smo radu prikazali naÅ”a istraživanja i objavljene rezultate o vrÅ”noj koÅ”tanoj gustoÄi u hrvatskoj populaciji i usporedili rezultate s drugim istraživanjima u svijetu. NaÅ”e je istraživanje obuhvatilo studentsku populaciju u dobi od 18 do 25 godina i njihove roditelje. Rezultati su pokazali da se u naÅ”oj populaciji vrÅ”na koÅ”tana gustoÄa postiže prije 20. godine na trabekularnoj kosti, a na kortikalnom dijelu skeleta nakon 25. godine života. Vrijednosti vrÅ”ne koÅ”tane gustoÄe u naÅ”oj populaciji sliÄne su onima iz studije National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), kao i iz ostalih studija koje su obuhvatile istu dobnu skupinu, osim na kortikalnom dijelu skeleta, gdje su u naÅ”oj populaciji naÄene znaÄajno niže vrijednosti. Kasnije postizanje vrÅ”ne koÅ”tane gustoÄe u muÅ”karaca nego u žena bilo je najizraženije na kralježnici, Å”to se nije moglo objasniti razliÄitim prehrambenim navikama i razinom tjelesne aktivnosti meÄu spolovima. NasljeÄe je imalo veÄi utjecaj na koÅ”tanu gustoÄu od okoliÅ”nih faktora, ali taj utjecaj nije bio toliko znaÄajan kao u veÄini drugih istraživanja. Utjecaj nasljeÄa na vrÅ”nu koÅ”tanu gustoÄu bio je manji na kortikalnom nego na trabekularnom dijelu skeleta. Bilo bi važno proÅ”iriti istraživanje na mladu adolescentnu populaciju i tako toÄnije defi nirati vrijeme postizanja vrÅ”ne koÅ”tane gustoÄe na pojedinim dijelovima skeleta
Milk and dairy products in socially imperiled seniors\u27 all day meals
Cilj rada bio je utvrditi udjel mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda u strukturi cjelodnevnog obroka socijalno ugroženih starijih osoba, kojima se dostavlja jedan topli obrok (ruÄak) na dan. DijetetiÄkim istraživanjem bili su obuhvaÄeni Å”tiÄenici jednog veÄeg zagrebaÄkog naselja te analizirani obroci koji se dostavljaju. Prema dobivenim rezultatima prosjeÄna energetska vrijednost obroka koji se dostavljaju iznosi 2848 kJ, Å”to je 29-35 % od preporuka za dnevni unos (RDA) energije u starijih osoba. Udjel proteina u tim obrocima bio je 30-55 g ili 20-42% od RDA za proteine. Udjel minerala i vitamina bio je promjenjiv. Od minerala najloÅ”ije je zastupljen kalcij (19.3 % RDA), a vitamin B2 (45.7 % RDA for men and 53.3 % RDA for women) od vitamina. ProsjeÄni dnevni udjel mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda u dostavljanim obrocima bio je vrlo nizak. U njima, je mlijeko jedini zastupljeni proizvod i to manje od 1 dL na tjedan. Cjelodnevnim obrokom 90 % ispitanika konzumira 1.5 dL do 2.0 dL mlijeka na dan. Osim mlijeka, svega 5 % ispitanika konzumira jogurt i polutvrdi sir jedan do dva puta na tjedan. Prema utvrÄenim podacima u obroke koji se dostavljaju trebalo bi uvrstiti mlijeko i mlijeÄne proizvode (osobito nemasni jogurt i svježi kravlji sir). Time bi se poveÄao udjel kalcija ali i poboljÅ”ala prehrambena vrijednost obroka.The aim of this study was to determine share of milk and dairy products in all-day meals socially imperiled independent-living elders who had organized one meal (lunch) on wheels daily. Dietetic monitoring was made in one subarea of Zagreb and meals on wheels were analized. According to results average energetic value of meals on the wheels was 2848 kJ, what was 29-35 % of recommended daily intake (RDA). Protein content in those meals was 30-55 g or 20-42 % of RDA for proteins. Content of minerals and vitamins was very fluctuating. Of minerals the lowest content was for calcium (19.3 % RDA) as well as for vitamin B2 (45.7 % RDA for men and 53.3 % RDA for women) of vitamins. Average daily share of milk and dairy products in meals on wheels was very low. Milk was the only present product in those meals and frequency was once per week in quantity less than 1 dL. By all-day meals 90 % examinees consumed 1.5 dL to 2.0 dL milk per day. Except the milk, only 5 % examinees consumed yogurt or semihard cheese once or twice per week. According to results some dairy products (as non-fat yogurt and fresh soft cheese) should be include in the meals on wheels. That would increase the share of calcium as well as nutritive value of the meals on wheels
Milk and dairy products in hospital diets of pregnant women with diabetes mellitus
Svrha ovoga rada bila je odrediti udjel mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda u prehrani trudnica oboljelih od Å”eÄerne bolesti zbog važnosti koje ova skupina namirnica ima u prehrani ove populacije. Analizirani su bolniÄki obroci pripremani iskljuÄivo za trudnice oboljele od Å”eÄerne bolesti. Rezultati su obraÄeni matematiÄki i statistiÄki, te usporeÄeni s važeÄim preporukama. Petnaestodnevnim praÄenjem dnevnih jelovnika hospitaliziranih trudnica oboljelih od Å”eÄerne bolesti može se zakljuÄiti da trudnice dobivenim obrocima nisu u potpunosti zadovoljile energetske potrebe odreÄene RDA standardima. Unutar obroka udjel mlijeka i mlijeÄnih proizvoda bio je zadovoljavajuÄi, Å”to se takoÄer odnosi i na unos minerala (kalcij, fosfor) i vitamina (riboflavin) Äiji su mlijeko i mlijeÄni proizvodi glavni nosioci. Radi li se o trudnicama koje imaju poveÄanu tjelesnu masu, preporuÄa se odabir manje masnih i nemasnih mlijeka i jogurta, te smanjivanje udjela visokomasnih polutvrdih sireva u dnevnom obroku.The aim of this work was to determine the milk and dairy products share in hospital diets of pregnant women with Diabetes Mellitus, due to special importance for this population. Hospital meals for this population were therefore mathematically and statistically analysed and compared with valuable recommendations. Meals were prepared exclusively for hospitalised pregnant women with Diabetes Mellitus. Results showed that meals were energetically lower than they should be. Milk and dairy products share as well as share of minerals (calcium, phosphorus) and vitamins (riboflavin) in hospital daily diets were suitable. If pregnant women have higher body mass that they should, they should have in there diets more low-fat and non-fat milk and yogurt, and less high-fat cheese in their daily diets
