The purpose of work — to justify the conclusion of compliance of vitamin level in military personnel with real energy expenditure and job factors during the long-term voyage basing on education of their real nutrition.

Materials and methods. To carry out the study, a sample of 30 people from the personnel of surface ships was made. The amount of water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins in the blood of the military was measured by means of highefficiency liquid chromatography (HELC) and photometry.

Results and discussion. Relationship between dietary vitamin content and in the blood of the military that is specified by food habits during the long-term voyage. During the voyage, the supplying of seafarers with food products providing water-soluble vitamins А, В1, В2, В6, РР and С is of key importance. Vitamin deficiency in a sea ration is corrected by giving out multivitamin preparation «Geksavit». However, this preparation is not optimal in view of limited set of vitamins and absence of minerals in it. Actual ration needs correcting by introduction relevant vitamin mineral complexes in the ration.
