Abstract

University students have the option to purchase their meals at university restaurants; in general, food eaten away from home has high contents of saturated fat and energy. The aim of this work was to perform a pilot study of the nutritional adequacy of meals served at two university restaurants from Valencia. Energy, macronutrient and micronutrient contents were calculated and compared against the Spanish Recommended Dietary Intake (SRDI). Daily menus provided a high amount of energy; lunch from restaurant 1 provides 60 and 78% of the energetic SRDI for male and female, respectively. In restaurant 2 these values are 49.5 and 64.6%, respectively. Menus from one university restaurant are planned by a registered dietitian, and provide an amount of protein, energy and cholesterol closer to the SRDI. University restaurants may be useful to longterm successful dietary behavior changes by developing healthy menus, providing nutritional education and adequate dietary intakes with the help of the registered dietitian.

Resumen

Los estudiantes universitarios tienen la opción de seleccionar las comidas en los servicios de restauración universitarios, y en general las comidas realizadas fuera del hogar son energéticas y tienen alto contenido de grasas saturadas. El objetivo de este trabajo es llevar a cabo un estudio piloto de la adecuación nutricional de las comidas servidas en dos restaurantes universitarios en Valencia. Se calculó la energía y los contenidos de macronutrientes y micronutrientes y se los comparó con las ingestas dietéticas recomendadas (IR) para la población española. Los menús diarios tenían alto valor energético; el menú de un restaurante aporta el 60 y el 78% de las IR para varones y mujeres respectivamente. En el segundo restaurante estudiado, los valores son del 49,5 y el 64,6%, respectivamente. En este segundo restaurante universitario trabaja una dietista, que ajusta los menús en cuanto a las cantidades energéticas, proteicas y de colesterol cercanas a las IR. Los restaurantes universitarios pueden ser útiles para llevar a cabo a largo plazo menús saludables, educación alimentaria y adecuadas ingestas dietéticas, siempre y cuando trabaje en ellos un dietista-nutricionista
