Abstract

This research was conducted to grasp the characteristics of excessive sodium intake and its related factors in Korean middle-aged workers to help prevent and manage cardio-cerebrovascular disease. Study subjects were 40-59-year-old workers (n=1,438) who took part in the 2010 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Subjects were divided into: 1) a group that ingested more than 4,000 mg of sodium per day and 2) a group that ingested less than 4,000mg of sodium/day. We analyzed the relationship between general characteristics, sodium-related disease, health behaviors, and frequency of eating out with excessive sodium intake. The proportion of subjects with sodium intake of more than 4,000 mg/day was high in men, smokers, and drinkers. As educational level and frequency of eating out went up, so did the proportion of subjects with sodium intake more than 4,000 mg/day. It's necessary to educate the public and create policies regarding sodium reduction in middle-aged men for the prevention and management of cardio-cerebrovascular disease, and various approaches are necessary to reduce overall sodium intake in the restaurant environment.

본 연구는 국내 중년 직장인을 대상으로 나트륨 과다섭취 특성과 영향요인을 파악하여 심뇌혈관질환을 예방하고 관리하는데 도움을 주고자 실시하였다. 연구 대상은 2010년 국민건강영양조사 자료 중 40~59세의 직장인 인구 1,438명으로 하였다. 연구방법은 대상자를 나트륨 4,000mg이상 섭취군과 나트륨 4,000mg미만 섭취군으로 나누고, 일반적 특성, 나트륨 관련 질환, 건강행태 및 외식빈도를 조사하였다. 연구결과 여성보다 남성이, 교육수준이 높을수록, 흡연자와 음주자에서 나트륨 4000mg이상 섭취군이 높게 나타났다. 또한 외식빈도가 높을수록 나트륨 4000mg이상 섭취군이 높게 나타났다. 따라서 심뇌혈관질환 예방과 관리를 위해 중년 남성 직장인을 대상으로 한 나트륨 감소 교육 및 정책이 필요하며, 외식환경을 변화시켜 나트륨 섭취 감소를 유도해야 한다.
