Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify food consumption patterns of the elderly and factors affecting them to improve their dietary health. Data from 1,172 elderly subjects (over 65 years old) from the fifth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES V-1) were used in our analysis. Validity and reliability analyses of food consumption frequency allowed the identification of seven factors: fruits, foods for Korean style meal, instant foods, alcohols, carbohydrate-rich snacks, vegetables, and legumes/mixed grains. Food consumption patterns were classified into four groups (according to the food consumption frequency) using cluster analysis. Cluster 4 showed a significantly higher food consumption frequency and Cluster 3 had a relatively high overall food consumption frequency but lower alcohol consumption frequency compared to the other clusters. Cluster 2 was characterized by a generally low food consumption frequency but a significantly higher alcohol consumption frequency. Cluster 1 showed a generally low food consumption frequency; however, the consumption frequency of legumes/mixed grains was higher than Cluster 2. Further analysis showed that the food consumption patterns of the elderly were affected by variables such as gender, age, town, economic status, education level, family type, and frequency of eating out. We conclude that a proper nutritional education program should be conducted to address specific dietary problems for each elderly segment.

본 연구에서는 전국규모의 표본인 국민건강영양조사 제5기 1차년도(2010) 자료를 이용하여 만 65세 이상 노인들을 대상으로 식품섭취 패턴을 파악하고, 그에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하여 노인 식생활 지도와 건강 개선을 위한 기초 자료를 제공하고자 하였고 세부적인 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 노인들의 식품섭취 빈도를 이용하여 요인분석과 신뢰도 분석을 실시한 결과 7개의 요인이 선정되었으며, '과일류', '한식류', '인스턴트 식품류', '주류', '탄수화물 간식류', '채소류', '두류 및 잡곡류'로 명명하였다. 식품군별 섭취빈도에 따라 군집분석을 실시한 결과 4개의 군집이 추출되었고, 모든 식품군의 섭취빈도에 있어 유의적인 차이가 나타났다(각 식품군 p<0.001). 군집 4는 전체 식품군(과일류, 한식류, 인스턴트 식품류, 주류, 탄수화물 간식류, 채소류)의 섭취빈도가 높고, 군집 3은 전반적으로 식품군별 섭취 빈도는 높은 경향이었으나 주류의 섭취 빈도가 집단 4개 중에서 가장 낮고 두류 및 잡곡류의 섭취 빈도는 군집 4보다 높게 나타났다. 군집 2는 전체 식품섭취 빈도가 낮은 편이지만, 주류의 섭취빈도는 높게 나타났고, 군집 1은 두류 및 잡곡류를 제외한 식품군별 섭취 빈도가 가장 낮은 집단으로 나타났다. 식품섭취 패턴 군집별 일반사항을 살펴본 결과, 일반사항 모든 변수들이 식품섭취 패턴 군집에 따라 유의적인 차이가 나타났다(p<0.001). 성별은 군집 4가 남자 비율이 높은 반면, 군집 1과 군집 3은 여자의 비율이 높게 나타났다(p<0.001). 거주 지역은 군집 3과 군집 4가 도시에 거주하는 비율이 높았고, 군집 1과 군집 2는 상대적으로 도시 거주 비율이 낮았다(p<0.001). 교육 수준은 초등학교 이하의 교육을 받은 사람의 분포가 군집 1과 군집 2에서 높게 나타났으며, 이와 반대로 대학교 이상의 교육을 받은 사람의 분포는 군집 4에서 상대적으로 높게 나타났다(p<0.001). 소득 수준은 군집 1에서 '하' 집단 비율이 상대적으로 높았고, '상' 집단은 군집 3과 군집 4에서 상대적으로 높게 나타났다(p<0.001). 또한 가족 유형에 있어서는 군집 1이 혼자 사는 비율이 다른 군집보다 높게 나타났으며(p<0.01), 직업 상태는 직업을 가지고 있는 비율이 군집 2와 군집 4에서 상대적으로 높게 나타났다(p<0.001). 식품섭취 패턴 군집별 식생활 현황을 살펴본 결과에서는 가족과의 식사여부에 있어서 아침(p<0.001), 점심(p<0.01), 저녁(p<0.01) 모두 유의적인 차이가 나타났다. 군집 1이 나머지 3개 군집에 비해 식사를 가족과 함께 하는 비율이 낮게 나타났다. 또한 각 군집별 외식 빈도에서도 유의적인 차이가 나타났는데(p<0.001), 군집 1과 군집 2는 '거의 하지 않는다(한 달에 1번 미만)'가 높게 나타났고, 군집 3과 군집 4는 '한 달에 1~3번'이 가장 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 노인들의 식품섭취 패턴에는 다양한 요인들이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 이러한 결과를 토대로 노인인구집단별 식품섭취와 관련되는 문제점을 파악하고 향후 노인들의 영양교육과 식생활지도에 활용할 수 있어야 하겠다.
