Abstract
This paper presents the results of a study on dietary habits of adolescents. The high school or adolescent period is a time of great physical and psychological changes, which cause instability and oscillations in the mood and behavior of high school students. Results obtained by interviewing secondary school students about eating habits and results obtained using a standardized questionnaire for the risk of type 2 diabetes were analyzed using a reliable statistical tool IBM SPSS Statistical, which offers a range of reliable analyses and statistical tests. Previous research has shown that apart from the person who has type 2 diabetes there is another person who is not aware of the fact he/she has this disease. Discovery of pre-diabetes in new potential patients is necessary at the earliest age, when a number of factors affecting lifestyle, such as irregular nutrition and obesity, physical inactivity and stress become important factors for the development of this disease. Detection of the risk levels in potential patients is important for both the individual and public health and everyday clinical practice. After determining the degree of risk for a particular sample group, a set of measures for a particular adolescent population is recommended, so that the disease does not occur, or its onset is delayed to a later period of life.
