【 摘 要 】

Introduction: Several studies show that starting a university program is a defining moment in which the lifestyle of students becomes a risk factor for health.Objective: To identify the lifestyles of students admitted to a Nutrition and Dietetics undergraduate program.Materials and methods: Observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study in which a validated survey on alcohol consumption, smoking habits, sleep patterns and self-perception of stress was applied to students.Results: 70 students participated in the study (79% women; 21% men). Over 50% of students were aged between 16 and 18 years. 56% of students slept 4-6 hours without significant differences regarding sex. The perception of stress was negative in 60% of men and in 64% of women. More than half of the sample (64%) did not consume alcohol before enrolling in the university, and only 5% reported smoking.Conclusions: The university environment can be considered as a risk factor for the acquisition of inadequate lifestyles that can affect the health and quality of life of the students.
