Abstract

Nutritional habits are an important factor in terms of quality of life and the use of existing sources. The purpose of this study was to determine the nutritional habits of teachers and nurses. A face-to-face questionnaire survey was applied to 471 participants, 186 of whom were nurses and 285 of whom were teachers. The findings indicated that the nutritional habits of the teachers were more positive than those of nurses (p = 0.001). In addition, it was found that there was a significant difference between age and nutrition habits (p<0.001) and that as the person aged, nutrition habit scores increased. No significant difference was detected in terms of gender (p>0.05).
