Abstract :Earthquakes are among the natural disasters that occur frequently in many countries. Natural disasters have a negative impact on people\'s physical and mental health. As with other disasters, the first priority for earthquakes is nutrition. It is critical that clean water and safe food are delivered to earthquake victims as soon as possible after the earthquake. At the same time, people\'s energy, protein, and vitamin needs should be met with the food that is delivered. Infants, pregnant women, and the elderly are among the priority groups for post-earthquake food supply. It is also of great importance that there are people belonging to special nutrition groups among the earthquake victims. Experts must participate in meeting water and food needs to avoid various problems. Prepared contingency plans should address nutritional needs more comprehensively by considering priority and special groups, and nutritional interventions should be identified in advance. In this study, the nutritional problems that occurred after the earthquakes in the world and in our country were identified and nutritional intervention studies were examined.Keywords : Deprem, Beslenme İhtiyacı, Sağlık, Güvenli Gıda
