Abstract

This study was conducted to assess the dietary intake of college students in Gyeonggi-do. The dietary survey data were obtained by a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire given to 103 students, 56 males and 47 females. The average age the of subjects was 22.5 years old for the male students and 20.9 years old for the female students. Among the subjects, 38 males and 26 females' height, weight and percentage of body fat were measured using Inbody 3.0. The average height, weight, Body Mass Index(BMI) and percentage of body fat of the subjects was 173.1cm, 68.6 kg, 22.9 and 18.9% for males and 162.5 cm, 54.1 kg, 20.5 and 28.1% for females, respectively. The mean daily intake of energy was 2,343.0 kcal for males and 2,062.0 kcal for females. The average intake of protein, carbohydrates, Vitamin B1 in the male students were significantly higher than those of the female students(p<0.05). The average of Nutrient Adequacy Ratio(NAR) was ranged from 0.60(folate) to 0.99(phosphorus). NAR of Vitamin A and calcium was 0.71 and 0.75, respectively. The average of Mean Adequacy Ratio(MAR) was 0.85. The intake of rice and oriental cereals(sum of the parched cereal powder, ramen, noodles, Chajangmyon, buckwheat vermicelli, buckwheat noodles, dumplings and rice cakes) in the males was significantly higher than those of the females. The intake of snacks in the females was significantly higher than that of the males. Appropriate nutritional education for an optimal intake of nutrients may help to improve the quality of diet in college students.
