Objective — to evaluate and analyze the dietary vitamin profile in the students of two ethnic groups, who reside in the Magadan Region. Subject and methods. Examinations were made in 193 young men aged 17 to 21 years, who were students of the North-Eastern State University at the time of the investigation. According to their ethnicity, all the examinees were divided into two groups: 1) 151 young Caucasians (who were natives of the Magadan Region); 2) 42 persons who belonged to aboriginal people. The dietary vitamin profile was evaluated in the young men through analysis of daily diets using the ASPON-Food program (Saint-Petersburg). The investigators recorded the average values of vitamin composition in the diet of the two examined groups, as well as the frequency of deficit or excess vitamin intake with the actual diet within the reference ranges. Results. The diet of young residents from the two ethnic groups in the Magadan Region was ascertained to be characterized by pronounced deviations from the current standards of physiological needs for the vitamin profile. There was a marked deficit in basic micronutrients in the diet of the surveyed people among both Caucasian and aboriginal people, which showed itself as a substantial decrease in vitamins B1, B2, B5, B7, D, A, and K and folic acid. The ethnic characteristics of the dietary vitamin profile in the examined groups were noted, which were reflected in the more pronounced frequency of the lower intake of vitamins C and PP and folacin in the presence of higher vitamin E content in the group of young aboriginal men. Conclusion. The findings can become the basis for the formation of recommendations aimed at correcting the diet of young people in Northeastern Russia, the goal of which is to prevent the development of diseases in older age groups.
