Specifically, adopting the Mediterranean diet model contributes to people&#8217;s quality of life and longevity. The purpose of this work is to investigate whether 18-40 year olds follow this dietary pattern and their eating habits. The study involved 200 people (N = 70 men and N = 130 women) aged 18-40, with a prevailing age group of 18-23. Based on their answers, the majority use alcohol up to 1 time \/ week and exercise systematically. It was also found that most people aged 18-23 and 23-29 consume small amounts of fruits, vegetables, legumes. While they often choose meat, sweets, soft drinks, fast food and whole grains.
