Knotek, Filip ; Chrpová, Diana (advisor) ; Pánek, Jan (referee)
Veganism, in the last few years more and more popular way of eating, is sometimes presented by non-academic articles as "the best" and without risks. However, compete omission of all animal products doesn't have to be as safe as it seems at first sight. The aim of this thesis is to find out what is the knowledge of vegans about the risks of fully vegan diet and also what are their eating habits to eliminate those risks. The theoretical part is mostly focused on risks related to deficiency of essential nutrients. The practical part was focused on research, that was made by anonymous quantitative survey method. The questionnaire was composed of sixteen questions oriented mostly towards knowledge of risks of vegan diet as well as towards eating habits of respondents.

Risks and benefits of vegan diet
Brabcová, Eliška ; Chrpová, Diana (advisor) ; Pánek, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis explores the risks and benefits of a vegan diet. Its main aim is to determine whether vegans have an adequate knowledge of the topic and whether they are actively trying to prevent the risks connected to the diet. One of the author's aims was to obtain data that will serve as a basis for the subsequent development of educational material for their diploma thesis. The theoretical part presents the basic characteristics of a vegan diet and summarizes the current knowledge on the issue of macronutrients and selected micronutrients represented in the diet. It also presents the reader with the current state of knowledge in the use of vegan diets in the prevention of diabetes mellitus, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases. The empirical part was carried out using a quantitative questionnaire survey. The results suggest that respondents have insufficient knowledge of the risks and benefits of their diet, despite using validated and evidence-based information sources. The data also shows that although 51 % of the respondents regularly visit their doctor to be assisted with the prevention of the risks connected to their diet, only 15 % of them consulted their diet with a doctor or nutritional therapist beforehand.

Jiříková, Eva ; Doležal, Marek (advisor) ; Pánek, Jan (referee)
The gluten contained in some cereals plays an important role in the quality of bakery products. However, it is also associated with a range of diseases which require a gluten-free diet. In the first part of the work there is a brief overview of the knowledge on the given topics. The aim of this work was to compare qualitative parameters of selected foods (long-life bakery products) for gluten-free diet. The work included 31 different long-life bakery products (biscuits, wafers, sponge biscuits, extruded products, cracker products) from various producers (including 8 gluten products). The information on the product labels indicates that the food is energy-rich (1640-2310 kJ). Carbohydrates accounted for the largest share of 2/3 of products (48.3-77.8%), of which sugars accounted for more than 10% of the energy value. The remaining 1/3 of the products were rich in fats (49.2-66.8%). The energy content of protein was low (<13%) in all products. After extraction of fat and conversion of fatty acids to methyl esters, the fatty acid composition was determined by gas chromatography (GC-FID). Predominantly represented were monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) with 16.1-83.6%, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), with 0,6-25,4%. Three samples exceeded, in 100 g of product, the saturated fatty acid intake (SFA)...
