Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare dietary and lifestyle habits in middle-aged women based on their self-perceived health-related physical fitness (SPF) level as well as investigate the effects of dietary and lifestyle habits on SPF. The study subjects were divided into two groups, 'High' group (${\geq}3.2$, n=64) and 'Low' group (<3.2, n=69), based on average SPF value (3.2). Women in the 'High' group showed a greater lean mass (P<0.05), whereas women in the 'Low' group had higher triglycerides (P<0.05). In analyzing characteristics of lifestyle habits, it was found that the 'High' group showed significantly higher scores for 'vitality level (P<0.001)', 'self-rated health status (P<0.001)', 'regular medical checkups (P<0.05)', and 'regular exercise (P<0.05)'. The average score for dietary habits was significantly high in the 'High' group (P<0.05). Furthermore, ordinary dietary habits showed a significant positive correlation (P<0.001) with SPF in the regression analysis after adjusting for disturbance factors. From these results, ordinary desirable dietary habits were shown to be an important factors having positive effects SPF. Therefore, healthy dietary and lifestyle habits should be practiced to improve the SPF of middle-aged women. For this purpose, related educational programs should be developed for the middle-aged women to take interest in their dietary habits.

본 연구에서는 45~60세 중년여성을 대상으로 인지된 건강관련 체력 수준에 따라 대상자를 분류하여 그룹 간에 식습관 및 생활습관을 비교하고, 식습관이 인지된 건강관련 체력수준에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 조사 대상자의 평균 나이는 48.5세로 인지된 건강관련 체력 수준이 '높음' 군의 제지방량이 유의적으로 더 많았다(P<0.05). 혈중지질성분 중에서는 중성지방만이 체력 수준에 따른 유의적인 차이를 보였는데, 인지된 건강관련 체력 수준이 '낮음' 군에서 유의적으로 더 높았다(P<0.05). 생활습관 특성을 분석한 결과 인지된 건강관련 체력 수준이 '높음' 군에서 활력 수준(P<0.001), 주관적인 건강상태(P<0.001), 정기적인 건강검진 여부(P<0.05), 규칙적인 운동 실천(P<0.05) 항목 모두 유의적으로 높았다. 평상시 식습관에 있어서도 인지된 건강관련 체력 수준이 '높음' 군의 식습관 평균 점수가 유의적으로 높았으며(P<0.05), 개별 항목에서도 '일정한 식사 시간(P<0.05)', '일정한 식사량(P<0.05)', '식사 시 즐거움(P<0.01)', '단백질 섭취 빈도(P<0.05)', '채소 섭취 빈도(P<0.01)', '식욕', '적정한 에너지 섭취(P<0.05)' 항목의 점수가 인지된 건강관련 체력 수준이 '높음' 군에서 유의적으로 높았다. 또한 식습관은 교란 인자를 보정한 회귀분석 결과에서도 인지된 건강관련 체력과 유의적인 양의 상관성(P<0.001)을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 평상시 바람직한 식습관이 인지된 건강관련 체력에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있으며, 중년 여성의 체력 향상을 위해 건강한 식습관의 실천이 필요할 것으로 보인다. 또한 이를 위해 중년 여성의 식생활에 관심을 갖고 올바른 식생활을 실천할 수 있도록 관련 프로그램과 교육의 기회가 마련되어야 할 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구에서 식습관이 인지된 건강관련 체력과 유의적인 관계가 있다는 결과는 그 자체로 의미가 있다고 생각되나 18개 식습관 문항의 평균점수를 독립변수로 처리하여 회귀분석 하였으므로 개별 식습관이 체력수준에 미치는 영향은 보지 못한 연구의 한계점이 있어 추후 분석이 더 요구된다.
