Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Functional food is a key element in the prevention and treatment of many diseases. The ingredients it contains, such as phytosterols that lower cholesterol, also have a preventive effect on type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis and heart attack. Phenolic compounds have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties. Xylo-oligosaccharides control insulin levels, and fibre lowers blood pressure, potentially reducing insulin resistance. These beneficial properties mean that there is an increasing interest in this kind of food.
UNASSIGNED: The aim of the study was to assess the state of knowledge and behaviour regarding functional food among adults and to answer the question whether there are differences between the state of knowledge and behaviour of women and men.
UNASSIGNED: The survey was conducted among 301 people, including 181 women and 120 men. The research tool was an original survey questionnaire.

For 56.2% of respondents, the factor encouraging the consumption of functional food was a healthy lifestyle, and for 54.7% of them, the product composition was the main purchase criterion. Among functional products, cereals or muesli were most often consumed for breakfast by 35% of men and 55.8% of women, 42.5% of men and 33.7% of women were eaten oils for lunch. For dinner they most often consumed fruit teas, herbal teas, herbal mixtures, this answer was given by 25.8% of men and 29.8% of women.

摘要:
功能性食品是预防和治疗许多疾病的关键要素。它包含的成分,如降低胆固醇的植物甾醇,对2型糖尿病也有预防作用,动脉粥样硬化和心脏病发作。酚类化合物具有抗氧化剂,抗炎和抗病毒特性。低聚木糖控制胰岛素水平,纤维可以降低血压,有可能降低胰岛素抵抗。这些有益的特性意味着对这种食物的兴趣日益增加。
这项研究的目的是评估成年人对功能性食物的知识和行为状况,并回答男女知识和行为状况是否存在差异的问题。
这项调查是在301人中进行的,其中包括181名女性和120名男性。研究工具是原始调查问卷。
功能食品的定义为42.5%的人(47.5%的女性和35%的男性)所知,而益生元的定义为41.9%的人(43.1%的女性和40.0%的男性)。对于56.2%的受访者,鼓励功能性食品消费的因素是健康的生活方式,其中54.7%,产品组成是主要的购买标准。在功能性产品中,35%的男性和55.8%的女性早餐最常食用谷物或麦片,42.5%的男性和33.7%的女性午餐吃了油。晚餐时,他们最常食用水果茶,草药茶,草药混合物,25.8%的男性和29.8%的女性给出了这个答案。
