Abstract
Mankind is accustomed to live in the changeable climate conditions. Our study was conducted to determine the causal connection, which will allow us to create a model of nutritional changes in the condition of increasing climate modification. To achieve the goal we have studied the changes of eating behavior in the villages of the municipality of Dedoplistskaro. We have conducted a retrospective survey and studied the eating behavior to assess the nutritional status in given time. We created questionnaires, which contained questions about the frequency of consumption of basic food, which was traditional in the past before the climate changes in this region. During the study 207 respondents were interviewed . The study shows that the nutrition character has dramatically changed over the last 20 years. Their ration was diverse before the climate changes but since the economic hardships and climate modification the nutrition of our respondents has been limited due to the ration of supermarket food and financial availability. The survey shows that corresponding discussion of existing problem has not been started yet. It is necessary to raise public awareness about existing issues and about the ways of combating with them. The support from the state in order to improve efficiency is needful as well.
