Student life is characterised by a higher degree of responsibility and independence, which is commonly reflected on unhealthy nutrition habits. Frequent consumption of unhealthy food can cause the occurrence of various illnesses such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes and obesity, therefore it is necessary to keep track of nutrition habits, as an indicator of proper health. The aim of this study was to examine the nutrition habits of students at the Teachers College in Split. For the purposes of this study, an anonymous survey was conducted involving the students from the first to the fifth year of the Teachers College. The first hypothesis was used to establish if there was a difference at frequency of consumption of food and beverages amongst the students who mostly eat at home with their families, the ones who dine mainly at student’s restaurant, and the ones who live and cook on their own. The second hypothesis was used to establish whether there is a connection between the rate of consumption of food and body mass index. The third hypothesis was used to examine if there is a variation of content with dietary habits of students who mostly eat at home with their families, the ones who dine mainly at student’s restaurant, and the ones who live and cook on their own, and the fourth was used to examine if there was a difference between content with their own body weight. The first hypothesis was partially confirmed because a statistically significant variance was noticed between the five test foods and beverages: bread and other bread products, unprocessed vegetables, fruits, energy drinks and alcohol. The results are favouring the students who mostly eat at home in contrast to those who cook on their own or go to student’s restaurant. The second hypothesis was partially confirmed because the only significant connection between body mass indexes was bread and other bread products. Food supplements, alcohol, fish and other seefood are not statistically significant, but it can be said that they have a certain influence on BMI. Often consumption of bread, food supplements, fish and other seefood marks the lower BMI. On the contrary, often consumption of alcohol marks the higher BMI. Furthermore, the third and the fourth hypotheses were confirmed because there was no statistically significant distinction in content with one's own dietary habits, nor with one's own body weight at students based on their most frequently consumed food and beverages. Students in the long-standing verticals of education to study, but also during higher education, acquire knowledge of proper nutrition and health preservation, but it should be 78 remembered that improving nutrition knowledge, nutrients and ways of intake of different foods leads to more regular and therefore healthier food. This research helped in pointing out the need to encourage students on practising healthy and diverse diet, as one of the main ways to stay healthy.
