Abstract

Background: The prevalence of overweight and obesity in Korea is steeply increasing. Obesity is generally explained by an imbalance between increased energy intake and decreased activity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the diet quality of normal and overweight/obese male workers.
Methods: Of 174 workers, total of 123 healthy men participated in the study providing 3-day diet history and their lab data with simple anthropometry. Nutrition analysis was performed with CAN-Pro 3.0. Statistical analysis were performed between normal (BMI 18.5~23.0kg/m2, n=33) and overweight/obese(BMI?23.0kg/m2, n=90) subjects.
Results: Their age was 44.39±8.89 (yrs) in the normal group and 48.29±7.90 (yrs) in the overweight/obese group. TG, Total and LDL-cholesterol were significantly higher in the overweight/obese group and HDL-cholesterol was significantly lower. Correlation between BMI and other factors were assessed. As expected, all the lipid profile and other parameters were consistent with previous reports. No significant difference was observed in energy intake. Diet quality assessment also was not able to distinguish the dietary pattern of obese vs. normal subjects. In both groups, Ca, Vit B2 and folate intake was lower in terms of INQ.
Conclusions: Data on the correlation analyses, most of the results are in agreement with other previously published literature. The role of diet composition or individual nutrient does not seem to contribute to extra weight gain. However, we could suggest from this result that Ca, Vit B2, folate must be included in any form of education or intervention.
