Objectives: Many female college students today control their lifestyle not for the purpose to promote their health but to maintain slender figures. The purpose of this study was to explore and describe the lifestyle of female college students from their own perspectives. Methods: Data was collected through interviews of 25 female students and was analyzed by using Colaizzi's descriptive phenomenology(1978). The phenomenon of interest was described, followed by collecting participants' descriptions of the phenomenon and extracting concepts from significant statements. These concepts were then organized into thematic clusters, followed by exhaustive descriptions into which data was applied to extract the final categories. Results: The results were deduced into 226 re-statements, 38 constructed meanings, 23 themes, 11 theme clusters, and 5 categories. The five categories include 'Increased interest in physical health,' 'Selective dietary patterns influenced by lifestyle,' 'Lifestyle formed by social adaptation,' 'Health complications caused by self-body images,' 'Engages in healthy dietary behavior'. Conclusion: This study described the experiences of female college students' lifestyles after completing a course in health promotion. These findings have important implications on health education for college students which should be considered in developing health education programs in preparation for adult years of life.

The objective of this research was to determine the current consumer interest toward Korean Kimchi and identify the preferred sensory characteristics of Kimchi using qualitative consumer studies on Chinese consumers. Five different sessions of focus group interview (FGI) were conducted (n=39). The FGI session was designed to determine 1) current knowledge and interest as well as usage level of Korean-style Kimchi, 2) interests toward different Korean Kimchi based on appearance and tasting evaluation. Based on the results, radish was the most accepted ingredient for Kimchi among Chinese consumers, as it resembles the sensory characteristics of Chinese-style Kimchi. The sensory characteristics driving consumer preferences towards radish-based Kimchi included crunchy texture, and just-about-right sweet and spicy flavor. Thinly sliced radish was the most accepted shape of radish-based Kimchi. The current study provides practical information for product development of Kimchi targeted for Chinese.

일생 중 중년기에 해당되는 연령 40 ~ 50대 소비자를 대상으로 성별, 비만도별 일반적 특성, 외식, 음주, 식생활 라이프스타일, 건강한 식생활역량의 차이를 살펴보았으며, 이를 위해 2016년 식품소비행태조사 자료를 이용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과, 첫째, 체중조절 (다이어트)에 대한 관심도는 여성이 남성에 비해 유의하게 높았고, 남녀 모두 비만도가 높을수록 관심도가 높은 특성을 보였다. 실제 식사량 조절 경험 역시 여성이 남성에 비해 매우 높았으며, 남성은 비만수준이 높을수록 식사량 조절경험이 많은 반면, 여성은 과체중군이 가장 많았고 오히려 비만군이 가장 낮았다. 둘째, 외식, 음주와 비만과의 관계는 남성의 경우에만 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 외식빈도, 월평균 지출비용, 1회 지출비용 수준은 남성이 여성보다 모두 유의하게 높았으며, 이 중 월평균 지출비용, 1회 지출비용은 남성의 경우에만 비만군이 다른 집단에 비해 높은 수준을 보였다. 음주빈도 역시 남성이 여성보다 유의하게 높았으며, 남성의 경우에만 비만도별로 유의한 차이를 보이며 역시 비만군이 정상군보다 높은 수준을 보였다. 남성의 경우 외식유형 중 저녁을 포장마차 등 길거리음식으로 이용하는 횟수가 여성보다 더 높으며 비만군이 정상군 보다 더 높다는 결과 역시 남성의 외식 및 음주 특성과 무관하지 않은 것으로 판단된다. 셋째, 식생활 라이프스타일은 남성과 여성 모두 유사한 요인으로 분류되었으며, 비만도에 따라 차이를 보인 것은 남성의 경우, 건강 및 고급추구와 가격추구 식생활 라이프 스타일 등 2개 요인이며, 여성의 경우는 고급추구와 안전 추구 식생활 라이프스타일 등 2개 요인이다. 그리고 남녀 모두 정상군이 비만군보다 해당 라이프스타일의 성향을 더 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, '건강한 식생활 역량' 수준은 여성이 남성에 비해 지식, 실천 수준 모두 높았으며, 비만도에 따른 차이는 여성의 경우에만 유의하였다. 즉, 여성 중 정상군은 비만군에 비해 건강한 식생활 역량의 지식, 실천 수준이 모두 유의하게 높았으며, 특히 실천부분이 비만도와의 관련성이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다.

Chemoprevention refers to the use of non-toxic chemical agents to prevent the neoplastic development by inhibiting, delaying, or reversing a multi-stage carcinogenesis. The primary goal of chemoprevention research is to identify or produce effective agents and strategies for clinical trials for applications to normal or high risk human populations. A large number of compounds have been tested for their possible chemopreventive activities, and it is of interest to note that many of them are naturally occurring substances. Thus, a variety of plant and vegetable constituents, particularly those included in our daily diet, have been found to possess substantial protective properties against experimental carcinogenesis. These substances, collectively known as dietary phytochemicals, exert their chemopreventive effects by influencing specific step(s) of multi-stage carcinogenesis: some inhibit metabolic activation or enhance detoxification of carcinogens, others interfere with covalent interactions between ultimate eloctrophilic carcinogens and the target cell DNA and still others may exert anti-promoting or anti-progressing effects. Mechanism-based interventions by use of safe dietary phytochemicals may provide one of the most practical and promising cancer chemopreventive strategies.

The validity degree of the guestion article appeared at the analysis of the knowledge of nutrition(the figure of Cronbach "${\alpha}$" overall 0.58, major 0.62, non-major 0.57). In the interest degree about nutrition knowledge of the major students were significant(P<0.05), but the non-major students were not significant, and there was a difference between two groups of the male and female, major and non-major students in the information about knowledge. The knowledge of the major students mostly get from school education, non-major from mass communication as TV and rodio, etc. There was not significant difference in self-consciousness degree of health of all the male, female students by major, non-major, and the self-consciousness degree about health of should not be significant to the food habit. Therefore deviating from acquirement of nutrition knowledge by the wrong medium of food consciousness of home dietary life, improvement plans should be activated for the right knowledge to practice in actual life. Taking the opportunity of food and nutrition education through literary subject in the curriculum of the college for students, good food consciousness must be properly applied all the part of dietary life, and it is urgent for them to carry out scientific and reasonable curriculum and educational material development.

In this study, we examined changes in the food consumption patterns of Korean adults due to COVID-19 using the results of the 2019 and 2021 adult household member food consumption behavior surveys. In the weight and BMI analysis results, both men and women showed a significant increase in 2021 compared to 2019 (male; p<0.01 female; p<0.001). The frequency of breakfast skipping was found to increase with none and over 5 times. As for interest in domestic agricultural products, the proportion of 'not interested' and 'average' responses decreased, while the proportion of those who responded 'interested' increased (p<0.01). The rate of eating out was found to have significantly decreased in 2021 compared to 2019. As a result of the eating lifestyle analysis, the taste seeking type, quality safety seeking type, and health seeking type also showed an increase in 2021 compared to 2019, and a significant level was confirmed. In the purchasing competency index, the use of labeling for agricultural products, use of agricultural food information, and agricultural food purchasing environment items all showed significantly improved results in 2021 compared to 2019, and the eating competency index showed a significant increase in healthy eating and traditional eating habits.
