dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: Breakfast, defined as the most important meal of the day, contributed significantly to the daily nutrient intake and energy requirements. The importance of breakfast on growth is known. In this study, we aimed to determine whether primary and secondary school children receive adequate and balanced nutrition at breakfast, to assess the adequacy of their nutritional and energy values in their breakfast.MATERIAL AND METHODS: We prospectively reviewed the data of 105 students who were followed up between 31 January 2018 and 31 July 2018 in 3 different districts of Ankara. Children aged between 6-15 years were evaluated in the study. BEBIS (Beslenme Bilgi Sistemi) was used for food consumption, amount and content of the nutrients that students received at breakfast.RESULTS: A total of 105 students' (52 girls, 53 boys) a mean age of 11.5 (range, 6 - 15) years and with a mean Body Mass Index (BMI) of 19.17 (range 14.11 - 29.14) were determined. Average energy intake during the weekdays was 378.96 ± 131.64 kcal for weekdays, while average energy intake during the weekends was 625.68 ± 162.12 kcal. At the weekends, the amount of energy and nutrients intake of the students were found to be higher than on weekdays.CONCLUSIONS: We emphasized that breakfast is important to supply daily food and energy needs and it is important for physical growth.
