Abstract

The main nutritional problems of the country are malnutrition due to low protein and energy intake (PEM), iodine deficiency, iron deficiency and anemia caused by it. Vitamin A deficiency and other deficiencies including B vitamins such as vitamin B2 and vitamin D deficiency have also been reported in children. The increase in need during this period is significant, especially in children who need more nutrients and micronutrients such as iodine and iron in growth spurts. The difference in need between girls and boys, especially during puberty, is due to the difference in the age of puberty, and after that, the need for iodine and iron is higher in girls. But after puberty, the balance of hormones in boys is such that the growth of the thyroid gland stops due to iodine deficiency in them, but in girls, the need still exists until pregnancy. For this reason, after puberty, goiter is 5 to 6 times more common in women than men. The analysis of the findings shows that there is a significant difference between the learning level of students who have used proper nutrition and students who have not received proper nutrition. Also, the level of learning in students who are fed is higher than the level of learning of students who did not use proper nutrition.
