The purpose of this study was to investigate the body mass index (BMI), dietary intake attitudes, and nutrient intake status according to sugar-containing food intake frequency of 409 college students in Gyeonggi-do. Subjects were categorized into three groups according to sugar-containing food intake frequency: rare intake group (n=113), average intake group (n=195), and frequent intake group (n=101). The average height and weight (P<0.001) of each group were 163.8±0.11 cm and 52.9±8.6 kg, 164.4±0.1 cm and 56.2±6.4 kg, and 167.9±0.1 cm and 68.0±15.7 kg, respectively. The average BMIs of the groups were 19.6±2.3, 20.7±0.8, and 24.0±2.7, respectively (P<0.001). Dietary intake attitude scores of the groups were 30.73±5.68, 30.11±5.51, and 28.00±5.31, respectively (P<0.001). As a result of nutrient intake status, daily averages of energy and carbohydrate intake of the frequent intake group were significantly higher than those of the rare intake group (P<0.05). On the other hand, vitamin A, vitamin B1, and vitamin C intakes of the rare intake group were significantly higher than those of the frequent intake group (P<0.05). Using multiple regression analysis, we found that BMI was the most significant variable affecting sugar-containing food intake. Therefore, nutrition education is necessary to improve nutrient intake while considering sugar intake for maintenance of healthy weight.
