This book is about the nutritional status of adolescents, the extent of knowledge adolescents have about nutrition and how much, if at all they use that knowledge in choosing their food. This book examined the nutritional habits of adolescents and how that affected their nutritional status and to make appropriate recommendations to parents and the nation as a whole. A survey research was used in the study. Information was obtained from a sample of students from Private as well as from Public Schools through interviews and the use of questionnaire. The stratified random sampling technique was used in selecting the 200 respondents for the study comprising 112 males and 88 females from both schools.
