Journal Title: FLORA AND FAUNA - Year 2018, Vol 24, Issue 2

Abstract

Significant differences between nutritional and fast food habits were observed at the 13-15 years and 16-18 years age groups of boys and girls respectively. The girls in the age group and boys had non-significant difference. Body weight showed non-significant difference for fast food and nutritional diet for boys and girls. Body weight of boys increased by 8.90% over normal body weight of 13-15 years. Lower body weight was observed in 16-18 boys adolescent and 13-15 years and 16-18 years girls where body weight was lower than normal body weight.
