Special diets and dietary choices among university students

Year: 2026

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: In recent years, interest in special diets has grown rapidly, particularly among young adults and university students, closely aligning with the rise in conscious consumer trends. The spread of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free diets clearly reflects a shift in which dietary choices no longer serve merely biological needs, but have become value-based choices.The findings presented in this study are partial results of quantitative primary research, which show that although the majority do not yet follow a special diet, the presence and growth of this phenomenon are clear.
