Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the factors affecting the born density of food and nutrition major and non-major university students in Seoul area. Data for food habits, dietary and health-related behavior were obtained by self administered questionnaires. BQI(bone quality index) of the subjects were measured by Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS). The results are summarized as follows: The average height, weight, BMI and osteopenia percentage of the major and non-major male and female student were l74.49cm, 67.05kg, 21.96 and 22.0%; l74.34cm, 65.98kg, 21.69 and 11.8%; l60.76cm, 54.48kg, 21.07 and 40.0%; l61.30cm, 54.22kg, 20.84 and 40.2%, respectively. The BQI of the major and non-major subjects were 108.07 and 110.47 in male student group, and 89.13, 88.18 in female student group, respectively. The T-score and Z-score of bone density of the subjects were not significantly different. Weight and BMI were positively related with BQI in male and female group but the relationship with BMI tended to be stronger in non-major female group than other groups. BQI was positively affected by exercise time, favorite food, and intake of seafood and tea in major and non-major male student group. One-side eating habit and intake of instant foods were negatively related with BQI in both male groups. In major and non-major female student group, exercise time, meal regularity, favorite food, amount of meal, intake of tofu were related with BQI positively and intake of tea and/or meats negatively. The result of this study revealed that desirable food habits, dietary behavior and health-related lifestyle may have a beneficial effect on bone density. They need practically and systematically organized nutrition education on optimum body weight, good eating habits, weight bearing exercise and intakes of good quality nutrient for higher bone density level.

본 연구에서는 식품영양전공$.$ 비전공 남$.$여대학생을 대상으로 골밀도를 측정하고 신체계측, 식습관, 운동 등의 요인이 골밀도에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 조사대상자들의 평균연령은 전공남학생 22.2세, 비전공남학생 22.4세, 전공여학생 21.2세, 비전공여학생 21.9세이었고, BMI는 전공남학생 21.96, 비전공남학생 21.69, 전공여학생 21.07, 비전공여학생 20.84이었다. 2. 조사대상자들의 골밀도는 전공남학생군과 비전공남학생군에서 평균 BQI 값은 각각 l08.07, 110.47, 전공여학생과 비전공여학생의 평균 BQI는 89.13, 88.18이었다. 전공, 비전공남학생의 평균 Z-score는 각각 0.139, 0.295, 평균 T-score는 각각 0.049, 0.185이었다. 여학생의 경우 평균 Z-score는 전공여학생 -0.786, 비전공여학생은0.842이었으며, 평균 T-score는 전공여학생 0.786, 비전공여학생은 -0.839로 나타났다. 3. 조사대상자의 골밀도 상태를 정상, 골감소증, 골다공증 3군으로 분류하였을 때 골밀도가 정상인 경우는 전공남학생 78.0%, 비전공남학생 88.2%로 비전공군에서 다소 높았고, 전공여학생은 60.0%, 비전공여학생 59.1%로 유사하였다. 골감소증은 전공남학생 22.0%, 비전공남학생 11.8%, 전공, 비전공여학생 각각 40.0, 40.2%로 여학생군이 남학생군과 비교하였을 때 골감소증의 경향이 높게 나타났다. 4. 조사대상자의 식습관을 조사한 결과 규칙적으로 식사를 하는 경우는 전공남학생 26.8%, 비전공남학생 68.8%, 전공여학생은 45%, 비전공여학생 32.6% 이었다. 육식 위주 식사는 전공남학생 19.5%, 비천공여학생 l0.6%이었고 채식 위주 식사는 비전공남학생 57.0%, 전공 여학생은 47.5%로 나타났다. 아침을 매일 먹는 전공남학생은 19.5%, 비전공남학생은 61.3%, 전공여학생은 33.8%, 비전공여학생 25.7%로 나타났다. 과식한다는 응답이 전공남학생 34.2%, 비전공남학생 25.8%이었고, 전공여학생은 25.0%, 비전공여학생 35.6%이었다. 5. 조사대상자의 식품의 섭취빈도를 나타낸 결과는 두부 및 콩제품을 매일 섭취하는 경우는 전공남학생 19.5%, 비전공남학생 37.6%, 전공여학생은 41.3 %, 비전공여학생이 17.4%이었다. 우유 및 유제품 섭취는 매일 섭취한다고 하는 경우가 전공남학생 34.2%, 비전공남학생 4.5%가, 전공여학생은 l0.0%, 비전공여학생은 34.8%이었다. 육류 및 육가공품 섭취는 거의 섭취하지 않는 경우가 전공남학생 4.9%, 비전공남학생은 44.1%로, 전공여학생 36.2%, 비전공여학생 6.1%로 나타났다. 해조류 섭취는 일주일에 0∼2회 섭취에 대한 응답율은 전공남학생 56.1%, 비전공남학생 50.5%이었고, 전공여학생 65.0%, 비전공여학생 55.3%로 대체적으로 섭취율이 낮은 경향이었다. 전공에 관계없이 전반적으로 콩식품, 우유 및 해조류 등의 섭취 정도가 낮았다. 6. 조사대상자의 운동 빈도를 보면 항상 운동을 하는 경우는 전공남학생 14.6%, 비전공남학생 23.7%로 비전공남학생의 운동빈도가 높게 나타났으며 여학생의 경우 남학생에 비하여 운동량과 운동시간이 짧게 나타났다. 체중에 대한 만족도를 보면 전공남학생 19.5%, 비전공남학생 34.4%로, 전공여학생은 13.7%, 비전공여학생은 9.1% 가 만족한다고 하였다. 체중조절의 방법에 있어서는 운동을 한다는 응답이 전공남학생은 65.9%, 비전공남학생은 54.8%, 전공여학생은 35.0%, 비전공여학생은 31.8%로 나타났다. 7. 조사대상자의 골밀도와 제요인의 상관관계를 BQI 값으로 살펴볼 때, 전공남학생은 운동시간 및 식사량 그리고 콩식품, 해조류 섭취빈도와 약한 양의 상관관계를 보였으며, 편식 및 인스턴트 식품 섭취와는 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 비전공남학생의 경우 운동시간과 해조류 섭취와 약한 양의 관계를 나타내었고 콩식품, 우유, 육류, 인스턴트 식품 섭취와는 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 전공여학생은 운동시간, 콩식품에서 양의 상관관계를, 육류, 차, 인스턴트 식품에서는 약한 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 또한 비전공여학생의 경우 콩 식품과 해조류, 육류에서는 약한 양의 상관관계를, 우유 및 차 섭취에서 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과 골밀도에 영향을 미치는 요소는 군마다 다양하였으며 남학생의 경우 평균 골밀도 수치가 표준치보다 높게 나왔으나 최대, 최소범위가 넓은 경향이었고, 전공남학생의 경우 골감소증의 비율이 비전공남학생보다 높아 이를 개선시키기 위한 여러 가지 방안이 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 특히 여학생의 골밀도는 전공ㆍ비전공군에 상관없이 낮게 나타나 여성이 남성에 비해 골격건강이 취약한 집단임이 알 수 있었다. 그러나 대학생의 시기는 여전히 골질량의 형성이 가능한 시기이며, 따라서 건강한 골격을 형성하고 유지하기 위해서 식품의 섭취, 균형된 식사, 적정 체중의 유지 및 골격 에 하중을 가하는 운동을 지속적으로 하는 개개인의 다각적 노력과 관심이 중요하다 하겠다. 그리고 전공대학생의 경우 전공지식에 대한 실생활 적용 및 반영의 정도가 다소 높을 것으로 기대하였으나 미흡하게 나타난 결과를 볼 때, 전공지식에 대한실천의지 함양을 위한 교육프로그램 마련이 절실히 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
