The seven (7) housewives were used as subjects at three times per weeks for twelve (12) weeks in order to find out the effects of aerobic exercise and weight training on body composition and blood lipid. Each subject's weight, lean body mass, percent body fat, BMI and blood lipid were measured immediately after the training and the results compared with the same prior to exercises were obtained as follows ; 1. The weight and percent body fat of the subjects were slightly but not significantly decreased, however the lean body mass following training was significantly increased with 1.3 %. BMI S RBW were also not significantly decreased. 2. Calory intake was 1929.9 cal before the training and 1896.0 cal after the training, which doesn't shows much difference. 3. The blood lipid such as TC and LDL-C were a little increased after the training, but HDL-C shows significant increase of 22.7 %, and HDL-C/TC was significantly increased with 13.2 % (p<.05 ) as well. However, TG shows significant decrease (p<.05 ).

미취학 아동기는 생후 1년 동안의 급격한 성장 이후로부터 학령기가 되기 전까지 성장이 완만해지는 시기이다. 이 시기의 아동들은 혼자 먹는 행동을 익히게 되고 식품에 대한 기호가 형성되는 등 식생활에서도 뚜렷한 개인특성을 갖게되며 이 시기에 형성된 식습관은 성인까지 이어지게 된다. 이 시기에 영양부족에 따른 신체발달의 지연이나 영양과잉에 따른 비만과 같은 과다한 신체발달의 문제점이 지적되고 있어 올바른 식습관 형성은 신체발달과 밀접한 관련성이 있는 것으로 보여진다. 우리나라는 취약한 칼슘섭취 부족에 따라 골격건강에 대한 관심이 크게 증가하고 있는데, 모든 질환이 그러하듯이 골격질환도 치료보다는 예방적인 관리가 다양한 측면에서 효율적이다. 따라서 골격건강과 최적의 신체발달을 위한 식사인자는 매우 중요하며, 일생의 성장시기에 따라 서로 다른 인자들이 관여할 것으로 생각된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 성장이 이루어지면서 식품선택의 독립성이 확립되는 미취학 아동에 있어 신체와 골격 발달에 관련성이 있는 영양섭취 요인을 찾아봄으로써 골격과 신체 발달을 위한 올바른 식습관 형성에 필요한 기초자료를 제시하고자 하였다. 이에 46~84개월의 미취학 어린이 총 62명(남자 37명, 여자 25명)을 대상으로 어머니에 의한 설문조사를 실시하고 대상자의 신체계측(InBody, Biospace)과 손목의 골밀도(DEXA, Medilink)를 측정하였다. 설문지는 어린이와 부모의 일반사항, 어린이의 건강상태, 식습관 및 활동조사표와 24시간 회상법에 의한 식사조사표로 구성하였다. 식사섭취조사 결과는 CAN-Pro를 이용하여 영양소 섭취량을 분석하였으며, 모든 연구결과는 SAS program을 이용하여 통계 분석하였다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 남녀 어린이의 평균 월령은 62.43$\pm$7.26 개월과 62.12$\pm$8.85개월이었다. 출생시 신장과 체중은 남자 어린이가 50.92$\pm$2.14 cm와 3.36$\pm$0.42kg, 여자 어린이는 각각 50.29$\pm$1.36cm와 3.32$\pm$0.39kg이었다. 현재 신장과 체중은 남자 111.65$\pm$5.44 cm와 19.60$\pm$3.52kg, 여자 109.04$\pm$5.04 cm와 18.67$\pm$2.81kg이었으며, 비만지수는 남녀 각각 -2.13$\pm$9.09%와 0.22$\pm$10.49%였다. 손목의 골밀도는 남녀 어린이 각각 0.25$\pm$0.04g/cm, 0.24$\pm$0.03g/$\textrm{cm}^2$이었다. 에너지 섭취량은 남녀 어린이 각각 영양권장량의 66.43$\pm$18.58%와 70.46$\pm$20.31% 수준이었으며, 남녀 어린이 모두 단백질(124.97$\pm$37.55%, 131.24$\pm$45.49%), 비타민B$_{6}$ (152.48$\pm$47.01%, 152.95$\pm$61.77%), 엽산(106.87$\pm$40.44%, 104.52$\pm$50.16%), 비타민 E (121.04$\pm$52.79%, 113.48$\pm$75.78%)를 제외한 영양소 섭취량이 권장량에 미달되는 섭취수준을 보였다. 특히 성장기에 중요한 칼슘도 남녀 어린이 각각 권장량의 62.21$\pm$39.46%와 70.07$\pm$34.52%로 낮게 섭취하고 있었다. 모든 영양소 섭취량은 남녀 어린이간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 신체계측치와 영양섭취와의 관계에서 체중, 체수분량, 제지방량은 각각 동물성 철 섭취량과 유의한 부의 상관관계를 보였다(p<0.05, p<0.01, p<0.01). 골밀도와 영양섭취와의 관계에서 손목 골밀도는 식물성 칼슘 섭취량과 유의한 정의 상관관계를 보였고(p<0.05), 특히 위쪽 손목 골밀도는 동물성 단백질, 동물성 철 섭취량과 각각 유의한 부의 상관을 보였다(p<0.05, p<0.05). 이상의 연구결과를 종합할 때 성장이 진행되고 있는 미취학 아동에 있어 신체상태와 골밀도는 동물성 단백질, 식물성 칼슘, 동물성 철 섭취량과 상관성이 있는 것으로 나타남으로써 앞으로 이들 영양소의 섭취가 신체와 골격 성장에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가에 대한 보다 세부적인 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.

To assess the food habits, the nutrient intakes and diet quality of high school students living in Chuncheon area. a dietary survey using a questionnaire and 24hr recall method was conducted with 318 subjects. $30.8\%$ of the subjects often skipped breakfast and $28.0\%$ had snacks over once per day. Mean daily energy intake was $1740\pm712kca1\;with\;61.1\%$ of energy supplied by carbohydrate, $16.0\%$ by protein and $23.1\%$ by fat. As well as insufficiencies in calcium and iron intakes, the bioavailability of calcium and iron consumed is considered to be low because most of them came from plant origins. For calcium, iron and riboflavin, the proportions of subjects with intake levels less than $75\%$ of RDA were all over $68\%$. The mean adequacy ratio(MAR), an index of overall dietary quality was 0.79 for males and 0.78 for females. The indexes of nutritional quality(INQ) were over 1 for most nutrients except 3 nutrients: 0.67 of calcium, 0.82 of iron, 0.90 of riboflavin. Nutrient intake levels less than $75\%$ of RDA may be appropriate as a criteria for insufficiency of nutrient intakes. Based on these results, it is evident that some of high school students in Chuncheon area did not consume enough nutrients, especially calcium, iron and riboflavin.

This article evaluated levels of Estimated Average Requirements (EARs), Reference Nutrient Intakes (RNIs), and Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges (AMDRs) of protein using the recently revised Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) for Koreans (2020). Dietary protein requirements are based on amounts sufficient to satisfy physiological demands to accomplish nitrogen equilibrium. The same principle was applied to estimate EARs and RNIs, for adults in DRIs conducted in 2015 and 2020 in Koreans. EAR was estimated to be 0.73 g/kg body weight/day, according to data (0.66 g/kg body weight/day) obtained using the nitrogen balance method and adjusted by efficiency of protein use (90%). RNI was calculated as EAR increased by an amount equal to twice the standard deviation of an age group so as to cover 97.5% of the group and was found to be 0.91 g/kg body weight/day. For weaned infants, children, and adolescents, growth requirement was added to estimate EAR. In particular, growth requirement was adjusted by efficiency of protein use in the revised EAR, which led to higher EARs for weaned infants, children, and adolescents of both genders as compared with 2015 DRIs. The AMDR for protein was set at 7%-20% of energy intake, which was the same as 2015 DRIs. Current, average protein intake by the Korean population is almost twice times the EAR, which suggests it might be better to increase the minimal margin for AMDR. However, it was not adjusted in this revision due to lack of evidence.

The aim of the study was to investigate prevalence of obesity among housewives residing in apartments in Taegu city and any relationship of obesity with various factors. Hundred three housewives aged 30-49 years living in apartments (over 30 pyung) were interviewed for socio-economic status, food habit, food intake by a convenient questionnaire, and daily activity by the 24-hour recall. Their weight, height and triceps skinfold thickness were measured. The results were summarized as follows: 1) The percentages of subjects and their spouses with college and higher education were as much as 53.6% and 83.5%, respectively. The commonest family size was four members with two children. 2) The percentages of subjects classified as underweight, normal, overweight, and obesity according to relative body weight(RBW) were 4.9, 44.7, 24.3 and 26.2, respectively. Twenty four percent belonged to obese group according to body mass index(BMI$\geq$25). 3) Food habit score was 12.4 points in average and judged 'good'. The average of daily energy intake was 2247㎉ which corresponded to 112% of RDA and intakes of nutrients except iron exceeded RDA. The means of food habit score and energy intake were not significantly different among 4 groups. 4) Multiple regression analysis was tested to explain a relationship between fatness and various factors. The equation, BMI=25.216+(0.836$\times$family size)-(0.309$\times$education, years)-(0.00503$\times$household work time, minutes), indicates that fatness of housewives was related with family size(+), educational level(-) and household work time(-). These relationships were statistically significant(p<0.001) and R2 (coefficient of determination) was 0.237.

This study was intended to investigate food, exercise habits, perception of health status and the effects of nutrient intake of female college students. Food habits such as regularity of meal time, repast of breakfast, numbers of night snack per week and duration of meal were assessed via a self reporting questionnaire, and 24hrs recall method for nutrient intake was obtained from 155 female college students in Yangju-si. The mean height and weight of the subjects were $161.25{\pm}3.52cm$ and $52.26{\pm}4.52kg$, respectively. The average intakes of energy and nutrients were below the Korea recommended dietary allowance(RDA). Especially, The nutrient intakes(energy, protein, fat, fiber, calcium, iron, phosphorus, zinc, sodium, potassium, vitamin B6, niacin, vitamin C, folate, vitamin E, cholesterol) of the group in which the regularity of meal time per week was 5~7 days was significantly higher than the group in which the regularity of meal time was < 3 days (p<0.005). The nutrient intakes influenced by the food habit such as the regularity of meal time, skipping breakfast, and the numbers of night snack per week but did not differ in accordance with the regular exercise habits and perception of health status. These findings suggest that nutritional education based on female college students' food habits(regularity of meal time, skipping breakfast and night snacks per week, and duration of meal) may be required to improve dietary variety. It is considered that the improvement in dietary habits will contribute to the improvement of nutrition.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the health status of preschool children using the questionnaires about dietary behaviors and anthropometric indices. And also nutritional status was investigated using questionnaires for 24-hr recall method. The study was conducted in 145 children aged 3 to 6 years and questionnaires for dietary behaviors and dietary intakes were performed by mothers of children in Ulsan. Just nine percent of children were graded as good in terms of having healthy eating habits, this means that the nutrition education for the dietary behaviors should be more focused on preschool children. With regard to the frequency of food intake, children consumed green & yellow vegetables less frequently, meanwhile consumed high protein source food (meat, egg and bean) and milk and its product more frequently. Children almost never consumed fried foods as often as 1-2 times a weak. In assessment of the health status, children have the highest prevalence of colds and allergy, but lower prevalence of clinical symptoms due to the nutritional deficiency. The mean height was $103.6\;{\pm}\;6.4\;cm$ and significantly different among age (p < 0.05), but was not significantly different between sex. The mean weight was $17.8\;{\pm}\;3.0\;kg$ and significantly different in 5, 6years old among age. By the WLI criteria, 11.1% of children were underweight and 17.4% of children were overweight or obese. By the Rohrer index criteria, any children were not underweight and 86.8% of children were overweight or obese. By the Kaup index criteria, 2.8% of children were underweight and 29.2% of children were overweight or obese. And Obesity Index criteria, 2.1% of children were underweight and 20.8% of children were overweight or obese. The results of obesity rate by all criteria except Rohrer index indicated similar level, were significantly high in age 3 with all criteria, and decreased with age increased. The energy intake of children was lower than EER (Estimated Energy Requirements) of Dietary Reference Intakes for Koreans (KDRIs) by as much as 85.7%. Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges (AMDR) was 62.6:21.5:15.7 as carbohydrate:protein:lipid, so children consumed protein more, but consumed lipid less compared with those of KDRIs. Vitamin A intake was 133% of recommended intakes (RI) and calcium intake which was identified as the nutrient most likely to be lacking in diets was 98.9% of RI. The intakes of all minerals and vitamins except folate were higher than KDRIs. 33.3% of children were distributed in insufficiency of energy intake, 42.7% of children were distributed in insufficiency of lipid intake. These results indicate that the need of developing of nutrition education program and further concern of a public health center, university and children care center about dietary life for preschool children.

The purpose of this study was to examine height, weight, chest circumference, sitting height, hemato logical status, eating behaviors and nutrient intakes for primary school children in Gwangju. The subjects consisted of 101 boys and 109 girls aged $10{\sim}12$ years old. There were significant differences in the height, weight, chest circumference, sitting height between the boys and girls. Hct, WBC, RBC, Hb, serum GOT, GPT and cholesterol were measured. With regard to meal regularity, 47.4% of the subjects has been 'regular'. With regard to meal volume, 15.8% of the subjects has been 'heavy'. With regard to meal balance, 44.7% of the subjects has been 'no'. The study also found that 63.4% of the subjects skipped breakfast, liked western food. Their dietary intakes were assesed for 1 day by means of 24 hours dietary recall method. The mean energy intakes of the subjects were 1,663kcal for boys and 1,427kcal for girls. The subjects for boys(girls) consumed 58(52)g protein, 43(60)g lipid, 4.8(6.5)g fiber, 470(514)mg calcium, 896(824)mg phosphorous, 9.6(16.4)mg iron, 3,301(3,468)mg sodium, 2,169(2,192)mg potassium, 388(466)RE retinol, 1.1(0.9)mg thiamin, 1.1(2.2)mg riboflavin, 12.2(26.3)NE niacin, 146(99)mg ascorbic acid and 251(159)mg cholesterol respectively. Energy, protein, calcium, iron and retinol intakes were lower than the Korean RDA. The intakes of fat, fiber, calcium, iron, sodium, retinol, riboflavin and niacin of the boys were significantly lower than those of the girls. There were positive correlations between meal time and protein intake or fat intake of fiber intake or iron intake or retinol intake : negative correlations between meal time and sodium intake : negative correlations between saltiness and cholesterol intake : positive correlations between use of perilla seeds and riboflavin intake or niacin intake : negative correlations between energy intake or carbohydrate intake or phosphorous intake : negative correlations between frequency of eating-out and protein intake or fat intake or fiber intake or iron intake or retinol intake or thiamin intake or riboflavin intake or niacin intake.

This study was conducted to determine riboflavin status of young healthy Korean women. Eight subjects consumed general Korean diet for 3 weeks. Riboflavin intake was measured during the period and Erythrocyte Glutathione Reductase Activity coefficient (EGRAC) was analyzed at the end of experimental period. The subjects who showed EGRAC value above 1.20 were supplemented 6 mg riboflavin per day for 1 week. The average age of subjects was 22.1 years old, height was 154.4cm, weight was 49.2kg, chest circumference was 81.2cm, the sum of skinfold thickness of 3 parts was 79.5mm and Body Mass Index(BMI) was 20.6. Hemoglobin concentration was 13.0g/100ml, hematocrit value was 44.0% A/G ratio was 1.4, and the activity of sGOT, sGPT, alkaline phosphatase was 14.3, 11.0 and 6.5, respectively. The average daily intake of energy, protein and riboflavin was 1745kcal, 56.1g and 1.14mg, respectively. The mjor source of riboflavin were milk, egg, Korean cabbage, rice, beef and so on. The average EGRAC value was 1.2748. percentages of subjects who showed EGRAC value above 1.20 was 65.2%. After oral administration of 6mg riboflavin, the EGRAC value of all these subjects was returned to normal range. Riboflavin intake was correlated positively with energy as well as protein intake, and correlated negatively with EGRAC value. However, riboflavin intake per 1,000kcal was not correlated with EGRAC value.

The Purpose of this study was to investigate the eating habits, nutrition and dietary fiber intakes of middle school students from urban areas, Jinju city and rural areas, Hadong and Namhae Gun in Gyeongnam province. Data were collected by using a survey questionnaire. The result of this study are as follows: In the respects of eating habits, the eating habits of girl students ware worse than those of boy students Regardless of region and subjects, the intakes of energy, calcium, iron, riboflavin, dietary fiber were poor. In all the regions the intakes of dietary fiber was far less than $20\~25g$ of daily intakes level. Mental education should also be emphasized to form teenagers' self-identity and the sense of value. Also, the nutritionists of each school should try to focus on the composition of group meals containing fish, vegetables, Kimchi and boiled rice and cereals, not satisfying with the group meals centered on hygiene. Health and nutrition depends on the food people take, teenagers' health is the basis of their future health. The continuous study about teenagers' eating habits and dietary fiber needs to be emphasized.
