Abstract

The health is influenced by many factors including physical, psychological, emotional well-being, both social and economic viability of the child family. In addition, one of the key factors affecting the maintenance and promotion of health is a balanced diet. Adequate dieting is necessary for the normal physiological functioning of the child’s body, because due to the rapid growth and development, children are very prone to the deficiency of its various components. This issue is especially relevant for children studying in specialized schools. If the principles of a balanced diet are not observed, many symptoms of diseases, including psychoneurological ones, are aggravated and often cannot be corrected.

According to the results of epidemiological studies conducted in different regions of Russia, significant violations in the nutrition of all school-age children were revealed. These include an irrational ratio of essential nutrients, excessive consumption of fat, added sugar and salt, insufficient content of polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, macro- and microelements, dietary fiber, as well as disturbances in the regimen and management of nutrition. It is important to note that the described violations were found in schoolchildren of general education schools, while studies on the actual nutrition of children in correctional schools were not conducted.

Conclusion. Despite a lot of research in the field of nutrition, there remains a need to study the structure of nutrition and nutritional status in children studying in correctional schools to scientifically substantiate and develop measures for the prevention and correction of alimentary-dependent diseases. The main directions of which should be monitoring the nutritional status of children in the following up their development, optimizing nutrition, taking into account the pathology of the child, the use of fortified foods and the appointment of vitamin-mineral complexes, with the aim of additional intake of necessary substances.
