Objective: To promote the science of health food among university student groups, especially medical students, to improve and expand the professional knowledge of medical students, to correct misconceptions about consumption, and to increase the awareness and correct usage of health food. Method: A stratified random sampling method was adopted to study the medical students of a university in Jiangxi. 200 university students were randomly selected to conduct a questionnaire survey on their knowledge of health food and health food consumption. Result:Medical students’ interest in health food stems from their professional knowledge and their unhealthy eating and living habits, hoping that their health can be enhanced or improved through health food. Conclusion: As a group with strong professionalism, medical students need to strengthen their knowledge of health food. Schools should take advantage of medical education to appropriately increase the content of nutrition courses or nutrition experiments to increase the knowledge base of medical students.
