Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate dietary habits, food intakes, nutrient intakes, and diet quality of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in a health screening and promotion center.
Methods: The total number of study subjects was 10,111 adults, where 3087 subjects (30.5%) were diagnosed as NAFLD. The dietary intakes were obtained using a food frequency questionnaire. They were then compared with the dietary reference intakes could be used in the future for development of diet and nutrition guidelines s (KDRIs).
Results: Mean age of subjects in the normal group was 52.9±10.3 yrs and body mass index (BMI) was 22.4 ± 2.6 kg/m2, and those of the NAFLD group were 55.1 ± 9.2 yrs and 25.4 ± 2.9 kg/m2. BMI, blood pressure of the NAFLD group were significantly higher than those of the normal group. The rates of skipping breakfast, overeating, and eating out were significantly could be used in the future for development of diet and nutrition guidelines er in the NAFLD group (p < 0.05, p < 0.000, p < 0.000 respectively). The speed of eating was fast in the NAFLD group (p < 0.000). The NAFLD group consumed significantly higher amounts of grains, meats, fish, seaweeds, kimchies, sugars, sweets, coffee, teas, and oils compared to the normal group (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, intakes of starch products, fruits, milk, and milk products were significantly lower in the NAFLD group compared with those of the normal group (p < 0.05). Riboflavin, calcium, and dietary fiber nutrient adequacy ratio (NAR) of the NAFLD group were significantly lower than those of the normal group. The Korean’s dietary diversity score (KDDS) of the NAFLD group was lower than that of the normal group.
Conclusion: In conclusion, we suggest that diet guidelines, such as increasing the intake of calcium
and dietary fiber, reducing the intake of energy, fat, and simple carbohydrates, are necessary to improvement of NAFLD.
The results could be used in the future for development of diet and nutrition guidelines for NAFLD.
