The research part focuses on the evaluation of knowledge regarding the health and eating habits of the above sample. The results were compared with those already available findings from previous studies. It was managed to collect 134 completed tests of knowledge regarding to health and physical activity and their associated questionnaires about dietary habits. Based on the results of the knowledge test, it was found that the average results reached zone below average.
