Description
Summary:The aim: Is to determine the actual energy costs of servicemen on the qualification course of special operations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to substantiate the adequate nutritional and energy value of their diet. Materials and methods: The actual average daily energy consumption of 85 servicemen of the qualification course (hereinafter - Q-course) of special operations of AF of Ukraine was determined by time-table and instrumental methods. By laboratory, calculation and questionnaire methods, the compensatory possibilities of their actual nutrition were assessed. Results: The data obtained indicate that the highest indicators of energy expenditures among servicemen were during the first phase of selection of the Q-course at the level of an average value of 6853 ± 963.9 kilocalories (hereinafter - kcal) per day. At the same time, the calorie content of actual food consumed only by 55.7% provided compensation for the average daily energy costs. In this regard, we have developed and implemented "Organizational and Methodological Guidelines for Rational Nutrition of Servicemen of SOF of AF of Ukraine". Conclusions: The actual nutrition of the military personnel on the Q-course of SOF of AF of Ukraine does not fully compensate for their real energy losses. The nutritional and energy value of the daily diet requires revision and bringing it into line with the actual energy consumption, depending on the preparation phases.
