Abstract:
The paper presents the results of a study of health status and some factors of nutrition in 1900 adolescents aged 10-17 years from the Primorye Territory. A comprehensive assessment of the height and development established health group 1 only in 4.2%, which is 6.5% less than the initial data of preventive examinations at educational establishments. The implication of the morphofunctional status was underestimated in assessing the health status. The findings of the pattern of nutrition in children adolescents from the Primorye Territory point to its irregularity, unbalanced characteristics in terms of basic ingredients, accompanied by low health indices. Metabolic trophotropicity was revealed in the adolescents of the Primorye Territory at the present stage. These processes were most marked in 13-year-old girls. In the average, in every 7 children protein metabolism tended to decrease with the maximum manifestation of these disorders at the age of 11-12 years.
