  • Objectives: The purpose of the study was to examine dietary life characteristics such as knowledge, self-efficacy and dietary behavior of preschoolers in Namyangju, Kyunggi-province, Korea. Methods: The survey questionnaire was developed based on literature review. Preschoolers aged 4-5 years (n=208) responded to the questionnaire to measure knowledge, self-efficacy, food preference, and dietary behavior. After excluding incomplete responses, the data of 197 subjects were used for analysis. Results: Mean score of dietary life knowledge was 8.0 out of 12, showing a low level of knowledge. Two out of 12 knowledge items were significantly different by gender. Percentage of correct answer on items of 'foods to make bones strong' and 'kinds of fast foods' was higher in girls than in boys (p<0.05). Total score of self-efficacy regarding dietary life was 40.1 (possible score: 12~48), on average. Compared to girls, boys had more confidence in 'not over-eating', and 'eating balanced meals with meat, fish and vegetables' (p<0.05). Boys scored higher on total score of food preference than girls (p<0.01). The preference for fruits was quite high. Among food items, boys scored higher on the preference for rice (p<0.01), fish (p<0.01), pork (p<0.05), beef (p<0.05), milk (p<0.01), and ice cream (p<0.05) than girls. Boys also liked fast foods more than girls did, showing preference for chicken (p<0.01) and soda (p<0.05). Compared to girls, boys showed more desirable behavior in 'eating breakfast everyday' (p<0.01). Dietary behavior was significantly correlated with self-efficacy (r=0.52, p<0.01), food preference (r=0.35, p<0.01), and knowledge (r=0.25, p<0.01) of subjects. Conclusions: In this study, we observed differences in food preference by gender. Dietary behavior of preschoolers was correlated with several factors, including dietary life related knowledge, self-efficacy and food preference. Thus, it is needed to develop nutrition education programs focusing on increasing dietary life related knowledge and self-efficacy, and consider the differences in food preference of preschoolers by gender.

  • 본 연구는 알코올중독자의 영양지식과 식습관 및 영양섭취상태의 특성을 알아보고, 영양교육이 이들 특성에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 수행되었다. 알코올중독으로 병원에 입원한 37명 환자를 연구대상자로 하였으며, 이들의 영양지식과 식습관은 설문지를 이용하여 조사하였고, 영양교육은 80분짜리 5차시 분량의 프로그램을 제작해 실시하였다. 본 연구대상자는 40대 중반의 남성이었으며, 정상 체위를 지녔고, 병원에 입원하기 전 음주 빈도가 높고, 음주량이 많으며, 소주를 선호하는 음주습관을 지니고 있었다. 이들은 저 학력, 중 하류층 직업, 독거 비율이 높은 가족형태 등 사회경제적 수준이 열악한 편이었고, 자신의 건상상태에 대한 인식은 낮은 경향이었으며, 간 질환을 비롯한 질병 보유율이 높아, 삶의 질이 취약한 편이었다. 영양교육 실시 전 이들의 영양지식은 1점 만점에 0.52점으로 비교적 낮은 수준이었고, 식습관은 3점 만점에 1.70점으로 바람직하지 않은 경향이었다. 영양섭취상태도 에너지와 식이섬유를 비롯해 본 연구에서 조사한 8종의 비타민 중에 비타민 C, 티아민, 리보플라빈 및 엽산이 영양섭취기준을 충족하지 못했고, 6종의 무기질 중에서는 칼슘과 칼륨은 영양섭취기준에 미치지 못한 반면에 나트륨 섭취는 과다한 문제점을 보였다. 그러나 영양교육을 받은 후 본 연구대상자의 영양지식이 0.81점으로 유의하게 향상되었고, 식습관은 2.13점으로 유의성 있게 개선되었으며, 영양섭취상태도 다음과 같이 유의적으로 향상되었다. 즉 에너지, 탄수화물, 식이섬유, 비타민 E를 제외한 비타민 A, 비타민 C, 비타민 $B_6$, 티아민, 리보플라빈, 엽산 및 니아신, 칼슘, 인, 칼륨, 철분, 아연 모두 섭취가 증가했다. 반면에 나트륨 섭취는 감소했으나 여전히 목표섭취량의 256%에 달하였지만, 감소했으며, 이러한 결과 Na/K 섭취 비율이 저하되었다. 이와 같은 본 연구결과는, 비록 연구대상자가 광주광역시에 소재한 G병원에 입원 중인 소수의 성인남자 환자였다는 제한점은 있으나, 알코올중독 입원환자의 경우 영양지식 정도가 낮고, 식습관이 좋지 않으며, 영양섭취상태가 불량한 편이지만 이들에게 비교적 단기간의 영양교육을 실시함으로써 이러한 문제점들을 긍정적으로 변화시킬 수 있다는 점을 확인해 주었다. 그러므로 알코올중독전문병원 등 알코올중독자의 재활을 돕는 현장에서 영양교육의 필요성을 인식하고 영양교육을 적극 실시하여야 할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Objectives: This study examined the effects of nutrition counseling by the nutrition care process (NCP) on diet therapy practice and glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: The survey was conducted on 49 patients whose hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level ranged from 6.5% to below 10% among patients aged 30~60s with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Nutrition counseling by the NCP process was carried out twice: first nutrition counseling and follow up counseling. The questionnaires were composed of 54 questions in five fields (general characteristics, health-related behaviors, diet therapy-related items, dietary life, diet therapy-related knowledge, diet therapy-related barriers). Nutrition intervention in nutrition counseling was performed based on the individualized diagnosis of NCP. Results: All the subjects practiced self-monitoring of their blood glucose levels, regular exercise, and diet therapy after NCP-based nutrition counseling. Diet therapy-related knowledge and practice by the subjects were improved after nutrition counseling. While the intake of boiled white rice decreased, the intake of boiled brown rice and barley rice in the subjects increased significantly. After nutrition counseling, the weight and HbA1c of the subjects decreased. Conclusions: These results suggest that personalized nutrition counseling by NCP process is effective for diet therapy compliance and glycemic control of type 2 diabetic patients.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The prevalence of food allergies in Korean children aged 6 to 12 years increased from 10.9% in 1995 to 12.6% in 2012 according to nationwide population studies. Treatment for food allergies is avoidance of allergenic-related foods and epinephrine auto-injector (EPI) for accidental allergic reactions. This study compared knowledge and perception of food allergy labeling and dietary practices of students. SUBJECTS/METHODS: The study was conducted with the fourth to sixth grade students from an elementary school in Yongin. A total of 437 response rate (95%) questionnaires were collected and statistically analyzed. RESULTS: The prevalence of food allergy among respondents was 19.7%, and the most common food allergy-related symptoms were urticaria, followed by itching, vomiting and nausea. Food allergens, other than 12 statutory food allergens, included cheese, cucumber, kiwi, melon, clam, green tea, walnut, grape, apricot and pineapple. Children with and without food allergy experience had a similar level of knowledge on food allergies. Children with food allergy experience thought that food allergy-related labeling on school menus was not clear or informative. CONCLUSION: To understand food allergies and prevent allergic reactions to school foodservice among children, schools must provide more concrete and customized food allergy education.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the nutrition knowledge, characteristics related to, nutrient intakes, anthropometrics, biochemical indices of university female students by major (food and nutrition versus physical science). Data were taken from 120 university female students (60 from each major) and the results follows. The mean age of the subjects was 19.6 years old. Most of subjects responded that they were healthy; subjects majoring in physical science scored higher in regular exercise (p < 0.01) and were more satisfied with their own body figures (p < 0.01), compared with the counterparts. The total nutrition knowledge score was $81.01{\pm}12.3$ for food and nutrition majors and $72.5{\pm}15.2$ points for physical science majors. (p < 0.01) The percentages of body fat were significantly higher in the food and nutrition students than the counterparts. (p < 0.001) The result of biochemical analysis showed that both groups were in normal range. But there was some statistically significant difference between groups in GTP, HDL-cholesterol and ALP levels. It suggests that regular exercise might have a positive effect on the body. This study showed that although both groups had different knowledge of nutrition, there was not much difference in the intakes of nutrients. But especially, the intakes of calcium and iron were quite low in both groups. Subjects majoring in Physical science had more lipid intake, but they had lower body fat. This suggests that regular exercise in this group might have effects on the percentages of body fat. In future study, nutrition education might be planned to increase nutrition knowledge and to connect nutrition knowledge to eating behaviors and to promote health to regular exercise. Also, the desire and the social perception for pursuing alean body figure and being underweight should be changed for optimal health.
