Item Peculiarities of water intake among young people(Харківський національний медичний університет, 2018-05-16) Arisukwu Judith Chikamnele; Osei GraceGender-related difference in WI was determined in current study, where WI among men was lower than WI in women. That can be related to difference in diet between 2 groups, as besides fluid from beverages, another source of water is food. However, the more profound study is necessary to prove that hypothesis. Moreover, as 26% of young men and 20% of young women indicated that they prefer to maintain water balance by drinking other fluids rather than pure water, including packed juices, soda, etc., that contain quite high amount of carbohydrates, it may lead to increase of BMI and related health problems. Further research of water balance and peculiarities of diet in young people is highly recommended with aim to develop recommendations of WI and diet to prevent pathological conditions development.
