Sažetak
The energy and nutrition allowances in boarding school restaurants are compared with the RDA recommendation. In 15 boarding schools in Zagreb with a population of 1117 students the daily meals have been analysed. The analyses show that the daily energy intake is higher then it is recommended: 15% higher for young men and 30% for young women. Share of carbohydrates and fats are not in proportion with the RDA&#8217; s. Application of mathematical modelling and linear programming enable correction of meal planning and elimination of differences in the nutritional content with minimisation of meal costs. Meal optimisation has improved the share of proteins (10-15%), carbohydrates (>55%) and fats (<30%). Economical effect of optimisation is an average the range decreasing of a meal price in of 9-16%.
