Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study was to examine whether lifestyle-related factors are associated with obesity in a selected sample of young Korean women.
Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 822 women aged 19?39 years who participated in the Seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted in 2016. Obesity status was defined as general and abdominal obesity. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between lifestyle-related factors and obesity status.
Results: The prevalence of obesity was 20.3% for general obesity and 17.4% for abdominal obesity. There were negative associations between the energy intake/body weight ratio and general and abdominal obesity. High-risk drinking was significantly associated with general obesity (adjusted odds ratio, 1.747; 95% confidence interval, 1.112?2.745), but was not associated with abdominal obesity.
Conclusions: Among young Korean women aged 19?39 years, high-risk drinking may be a risk factor for general obesity.
