Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between dietary macronutrient intakes and prevalence ofmetabolic syndrome (MetS) in Korean adults. Data were obtained from the Korean National Health and NutritionExamination Survey (2013-2017), and a total of 11,600 Korean adults (4,918 men, 6,682 women) aged 50 years and olderwere analyzed. The daily intakes and percentages of energy from carbohydrates or fat in men or women with MetS weresignificantly lower than in normal subjects, respectively. High carbohydrate or fat percentages were negatively associatedwith MetS based on adjusted odds ratios (OR) of 0.804 in men (p=0.034) and 0.820 in women (p=0.045), respectively.
A high percentage of energy from carbohydrates was positively associated with reduced waist circumference, diastolic bloodpressure, triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in men. On the other hand, a high percentage of energyfrom fat was positively related with elevated HDL cholesterol and reduced triglycerides in women. In conclusion, our studyindicates that high carbohydrate or fat intake is associated with risk of MetS in Korean men or women aged 50 years andolder, respectively. Further prospective studies are necessary to elucidate the association between macronutrient intakes andMetS among Korean adults according to age.
