Bayerová, Michaela ; Starnovská, Tamara (advisor) ; Fornůsek, František (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of nutrition of children from birth to 3 years. The theoretical part is dedicated to general characteristics and official recommendations in the field of infant and toddler nutrition, in particular the introduction of complementary foods and the eating behaviour that the child adopts at this age and carries over into adulthood. In view of the growing trend towards alternative diets of young children, part of this thesis has also focused on this issue, as the possible withdrawal of certain nutrients can have fatal consequences for the developing organism. The practical part focused on mapping these trends. The research was carried out quantitatively by means of a questionnaire survey, which was mainly directed at the child's general approach to nutrition and eating habits. The questionnaire was disseminated through Facebook groups that bring together parents of young children. The aim is to determine the current perception of nutrition of parents of young children, whether they follow official recommendations in terms of introducing complementary foods and what are the current nutritional habits of young children.

The aim of the theoretical part is to define basic concepts: human eating, rational nutrition, alternative meals and diet.

In conclusion, the didactic principles, which were put into context with the nutrition directive, are presented. The aim of the practical part is to analyze the nutritional recommendations of CINDI and compare them with the Primal nutritional style. The comparison is based on specialized literature and foreign language studies on alternative meals. Based on new nutritional recommendations, a new nutritional pyramid is proposed together with a methodical description and manual. In conclusion, there is a proposal for a specific lesson, which deals with alternative nutrition issues.

Fialová Krejzová, Lenka ; Váchová, Alena (advisor) ; Kovaříková, Miroslava (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the relationships and opinions of students of selected secondary schools, which are connected with alternative ways of eating. The theoretical part contains basic information about rational nutrition, individual nutrients, there is a comparison of the food pyramid and a healthy plate. Last but not least, alternative diets are also clarified and then information on five specific types of alternative diets is given. In the individual subchapters, vegetarianism, veganism, raw food, paleo diet and a gluten-free diet are mentioned. The aim of the practical part is to find out the opinion of students of selected secondary schools on alternative ways of eating. These are my chosen secondary schools in the Rakovnicko region. A questionnaire survey is used as a research tool. Based on the data obtained, the questionnaire was evaluated and the results were converted into tables and graphs, which are always commented. 187 respondents answered the questionnaire. It was found that 19 of all respondents have nutrition-related health restrictions. The surprising result is that students did not learn about alternative meals primarily at school, but from their own resources (friends, family, etc.). The results of the questionnaire survey point to the fact that secondary school students...

The bachelor's thesis deals with the most common media-promoted "myths in nutrition" and aims to find out what opinion the general public has on them, whether they eat according to these myths and what arguments they base their beliefs on. The work is divided into the theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is based on foreign articles and studies. It is divided according to basic macronutrients and alternative nutritional directions, to which specific myths relate individually. Each myth is presented and its historical sources and arguments that support the myth clarified. Subsequently, the myth is explained and refuted by documented studies and scientific articles.

Nutrient deficiency in vegetarianism in children
ŠIMONÍK, Ondřej
The bachelor thesis deals with nutrient deficiencies in vegetarianism in children. This topic is becoming more and more important, because at present an ever increasing proportion eats in this manner. However, it is important to realize that this diet brings various risks in addition to all the effects that have a positive influence on organism. Especially during growth and evolution of young organism and groups of infants, young children and adolescents are threatened most. The objective of this bachelor thesis was to find out which nutrients are in deficiency in vegetarianism in children. There were two research questions formulated: "What nutrients are in deficiency in children, who eat a vegetarian diet?" and "What leads childern to eating a vegetarian diet?" The thesis is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part focuses on the definition of basic concepts such as vegetarianism and its distribution. It also deals with the risks and preferences of this manner of eating and the problem of the lack of macro and micro nutrients. The practical part was processed using qualitative reseach. The focus group was consisted of 4 children. It was necessary to obtain for the reseach fourteen-day diet records from the children and provide blood sample. Nutrients were found in the blood samples, i. e. the nutrients that are in deficiency, and the diet records were further calculated in the Nutriservis program. The results of the survey are presented in charts and in textual evalution. The reseach shows that in vegetarianism we can find some nutrients in deficiency in all of my respondents and there is a need to increase awareness of that issue.
