Description

Mahfuza Akter and Jubayer Hossain survey eating and sitting habits among university students in Dhaka in this 2024 paper. Student years often bring worse food choices and less movement. The team asked how common those patterns are and what they link to.

Four hundred forty-four students answered an online survey shared through snowball sampling. Forty-four percent ate breakfast irregularly, and only a quarter favored vegetables. Over half preferred junk food, and under a fifth ate fruit daily. Many spent long hours online or on phones and did little exercise. Dinner habits, smoking, and activity levels tied significantly to the overall pattern. The authors call the activity gap the biggest worry in the group.
