Abstract (eng)

This thesis provides an insight into the Vietnamese diet. To do that the general nutritional status of the population in Vietnam is described and the Vietnamese food guide pyramid is represented. In Vietnam, there are still many severe nutrition problems such as underweight, stunting and wasting. High-risk groups are here young children, women of reproductive age and pregnant women. In the last decades, the nutritional situation in Vietnam became much better, however there is still much room for improvement. Furthermore, the immigration situation in Austria is described and the changes in food habits among immigrants are analyzed. Many studies showed that a migration to a Western country comes often with negative health effects. However, there are several factors which play a role in the dietary behavior of an immigrant. In Austria, the number of immigrants is continuously rising. Amongst them there are many Vietnamese people. To analyze the eating habits of the Vietnamese population in Austria a study with 42 subjects has been conducted. The results and outcomes were compared to the recommendation of D-A-CH 2015. In addition, to have a comparison between the Austrian and the Vietnamese diet, the results were also compared to the latest Nutritional Survey of Austria in 2012.
