Öz

Objectives: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the BMI values, changes in nutritional habits and food literacy levels of individuals who had previously received nutrition and diet counseling during the COVID-19 restriction process. Method: The study was cross-sectional and was conducted with 44 individuals over the age of 18 who received nutrition and diet counseling at Pursaklar District Health Directorate. After the individuals were called by phone and their verbal consent was obtained, they were directed to a questionnaire consisting of questions about sociodemographic characteristics, anthropometric data, nutrition and lifestyle habits, and the short food literacy questionnaire. Results: The mean age of the participants was 40.20±9.08 years and 93.2% were women. The mean BMI of the participants was 33.87±6.36 before the restriction period and 32.84±5.87 after the restriction period. During the restriction period, 47.7% of the participants reported that their eating habits worsened and 36.4% reported that their appetite increased. 22.7% of the group stated that they skipped main meals during the period, while 20.5% added to main and snacks. The mean food literacy scale score of the participants was 33.54±5.8. As the education level of the participants increased, the food literacy score increased.
