Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the nutritional status of 3~5 year old children attending kindergarten and childcare facilities in 2010 and 2014. Methods: Data were obtained from the 2010 and 2014 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (KNHANES) and included 509 subjects aged 3~5 years old attending kindergarten and childcare facilities. Results: In 2014, rate of skipping meals by children was 16.2%, an increase of 5.5% compared with the rate of skipping meals by children in 2010. Calcium intake in 2014 was 397.41 mg at 3 years old, 419.27 mg at 4 years old, and 414.01 mg at 5 years old. For the mean nutrient adequacy ratio (MAR) of subjects in 2010 and 2014, MAR at 3 years old (0.86) was significantly lower than those at 4 and 5 years old (0.90, 0.91) (p < 0.01). In 2010 and 2014, EAR intake at 3 years old (2.72) was significantly higher than those at 4 years old (2.14) and 5 years olds (1.92) (p < 0.01). Conclusion: As a result, compared with 2010 before establishment of the Children's foodservice management center, there was no improvement in the polarization of nutrient intake of children in 2014. Therefore, researchers believe that a continuous monitoring system developed by nutrition experts and children's foodservice management center are needed to improve the nutritional status of children. Of children between the ages of 3~5 years old, those with intakes under EAR were mostly 3 years old. Therefore, researchers suggest that the infant age group of KDRIs, which is classified as 1~2 years old and 3~5 years old, needs to be reestablished considering the growth and development of infants.

2010년, 2014년 3~5세의 국민건강영양조사 자료를 이용하여 유치원 및 보육시설을 이용하는 원아 509명을 대상으로 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 2014년 원아들의 조사 전날 결식률은 16.2%로, 2010년 원아의 결식률에 비해 5.5%p 증가하였다. 원아들의 연도별 영양상태를 살펴본 결과, 2014년도 원아들의 칼슘 섭취량은 권장량 대비 가장 적게 섭취한 영양소로, 2010년도 원아들에 비해 1일 39.78 mg (3세), 54.78 mg (4세) 35.78 mg (5세) 적게 섭취하였다. 영양소 적정섭취비의 경우, 2014년 4세와 5세 원아는 2010년 4, 5세에 비해 철과 티아민의 NAR이 유의하게 높았다. 영양 밀도지수에서 2014년 5세 원아의 칼슘과 인 INQ는 2010년 5세에 비해 유의하게 낮은 반면, 티아민의 INQ는 2010년 5세에 비해 높았다. 과잉섭취 대상자 비율에서는 2014년 3~5세 원아들은 2010년 원아들에 비해 철과 티아민 과잉섭취 대상자 비율이 높았다. 또한 원아들의 연령별 영양상태를 살펴본 결과에서는, 평균 영양소 적정섭취비에서 3세의 MAR은 4세와 5세에 비해 유의하게 낮았고, 평균필요량 미만으로 섭취한 영양소의 개수는 4세 (2.14개)와 5세 (1.92개)에 비해 3세에서 2.72개로 유의하게 많았다.
