Childhood is a period that is essential for creating a eating pattern that will reduce cardiovascular risk in the future. The aim of the present study is to study and analyze the nutrition and eating habits of students aged 13-18 years. Documentary, sociological and statistical methods were used. The study covers 229 students from 6 settlements in Bulgaria from 10 schools. The analysis of the data shows that unhealthy eating habits are acquired in childhood and adolescence. There is a relatively low consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables, milk, dairy products and high consumption of ready-made snacks, chips, confectionery, carbonated drinks. Close cooperation is needed between health professionals, teachers and parents in the fight against unhealthy eating habits, which will help reduce heart risk in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
