大学生往往有可能导致体重增加的饮食习惯和生活习惯。矛盾的是,体重增加也可能导致卡路里限制,这种做法在那些关心自己体重的人中很常见。因此,这项研究的目的是调查与超重和肥胖相关的习惯与饮食摄入之间的关系,身体活动,和大学生的BMI。
在这项横断面研究中纳入了一百九十二名参与者(18-26岁;75%为女性)。参与者完成了“与超重和肥胖相关的习惯问卷”,该问卷评估了五个维度:对热量摄入的关注,健康饮食,身体活动,酒精消费,为了心理健康而吃东西。此外,人体测量参数,饮食摄入量,和身体活动进行了评估。线性回归模型用于检查结果与暴露变量之间的关联。
对热量摄入的更高关注与更高的BMI(1.05kg/m2[95CI:0.58,1.51])有关,但能量较低(-312.2千卡/天[95CI:-404.6,-219.8])和脂肪摄入量(-1.88%[95CI:-2.94,-0.83])。此外,健康饮食与更好的饮食质量0.96[95CI:0.47,1.44]和较低的能量摄入(-231.4kcal/day[95CI:-367.7,-95.2])相关。同时,体力活动维度得分越高,饮食质量越好(0.41[95CI:0.16,0.66]).
饮食限制最高的大学生的BMI最高,能量和脂肪摄入量最低。我们的研究结果强调了促进大学生健康行为的重要性。
College students tend to have eating and lifestyle habits that can lead to weight gain. Paradoxically, weight gain could also lead to calorie restriction, a practice that is common among those who are concerned about their body weight. Thus, the objective of this
study was to investigate the association between habits related to overweight and obesity and dietary intake, physical activity, and BMI among college students.
One hundred ninety-two participants (18-26 years; 75% female) were included in this cross-sectional
study. Participants completed the \'habits related to overweight and obesity questionnaire\' which evaluates five dimensions: the concern about caloric intake, healthy eating, physical activity, alcohol consumption, and eating for psychological well-being. Additionally, anthropometric parameters, dietary intake, and physical activity were evaluated. Linear regression models were used to examine the associations between outcome and exposure variables.
Higher concern about caloric intake was associated with higher BMI (1.05 kg/m2 [95%CI: 0.58, 1.51]), but lower energy (-312.2 kcal/day [95%CI: -404.6, -219.8]) and fat intake (-1.88% [95%CI: -2.94, -0.83]). Furthermore, healthy eating was related to better diet quality 0.96 [95%CI: 0.47,1.44] and lower energy intake (-231.4 kcal/day [95%CI: -367.7, -95.2]). Meanwhile, higher scores in the physical activity dimension were associated with better diet quality (0.41 [95%CI: 0.16,0.66]).
College students with the highest dietary restraint had the greatest BMI and the lowest energy and fat intake. Our results highlight the importance of promoting healthy behaviors among college students.
