The rapid drop in the Aral Sea's level since the 1960s has resulted in an environmental disaster and major shifts in quality of life. The research aims to determine the eating habits of adolescents from 11 to 17 years old living in the Aral Sea Basin by using an FFQ questionnaire. The respondents' diets were found to be unbalanced due to a shortage of proteins, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and complex carbohydrates, with a predominance of easily digestible carbohydrates and plant proteins. The study highlights the need for educational efforts to increase awareness of the consequences of poor nutrition.
