Abstract :The "coronavirus disease 2019" (COVID-19) pandemic, which emerged in China at the end of 2019 and then affected the whole world, brought along many health and nutrition problems. Due to various reasons, people's food intake was also affected during the pandemic, and many eating habits were changed. In this pilot study, it was aimed to determine the changes in people's nutrition after the COVID-19 pandemic. In the study, 150 (32 males, 118 females) individuals were included, and the study data were obtained through an online questionnaire. Food consumption frequency was used to look at the difference in nutrition pre and post-pandemic. As a result, there was no statistically significant change in food consumption pre and post-pandemic in males, while it was found that yoghurt, garlic, lemon and turmeric consumption increased significantly in females after the pandemic.
