Abstract

Objectives: This study examined the personal, interpersonal and community factors related to food sufficiency and variety among Korean adults using data from the 2017 Community Health Survey. Methods: A total of 228,310 adults aged ≥ 19 years were classified into three groups: food sufficiency with variety, food sufficiency without variety and food insufficiency. Personal factors included sociodemographic characteristics, health behavior and health status. Interpersonal factors included social networking and social activities, and community factors included safety, natural environment, living environment, availability of public transportation and health care services. The association of food sufficiency and variety with interpersonal and community factors was assessed using multivariable logistic regression analyses. Results: Of the total sample, the food-sufficiency-without-variety group and food insufficiency group accounted for 31.5% and 3.2%, respectively. The sociodemographic factors associated with food insufficiency and non-variety were women, ≥ 65 years of age, with low education level, low household income, unemployed, single, and living in areas of small population sizes. There were significant differences in health behavior and health status, interpersonal and community factors among the three groups. Multivariable logistic regression analyses conducted after adjusting for confounding factors showed that lack of social networking and social activities and lower satisfaction derived from community environments were associated with the risk of food insufficiency and non-variety. Conclusions: Our results showed that interpersonal and community factors as well as personal factors were related to food sufficiency and variety. Therefore, public policies to help build social networks and participation in social activities, and improve community environment are needed together with food assistance to overcome the problems of food insufficiency and non-variety.

본 연구에서는 질병관리본부의 2017년 지역사회건강조사에 참여한 19세 이상의 한국 성인 228,310명을 대상으로, 식품의 충분한 공급과 다양성 확보를 기준으로 식품충분·다양군, 식품충분·비다양군, 식품불충분군으로 분류한 집단의 개인적 요인, 개인간 요인, 지역사회 요인에 차이가 있는지를 파악하고, 식품충분성 및 다양성과 관련된 개인간 요인과 지역사회 요인을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 대상자 중 식품충분·다양군은 65.3%, 식품충분·비다양군은 31.5%, 식품불충분군은 3.2%이었다. 식품충분·비다양군과 식품불충분군은 식품충분·다양군에 비해 여성, 65세 이상, 중졸 이하, 가구의 월평균 소득이 200만원 미만, 직업이 없거나 배우자 없는 경우, 소규모 지역 거주 등의 특성을 나타냈으며, 모든 건강행동과 건강상태에서 집단별 분포에 유의적인 차이가 있었다. 건강행동 중 금연, 규칙적 운동, 적절한 수면 실천 비율은 식품충분·다양군이 가장 높았으나, 금주와 규칙적 아침식사 실천 비율은 식품불충분군이 가장 높았다. 고혈압, 당뇨, 이상지질혈증 및 관절염 비율은 식품충분·다양군에 비해 식품충분·비다양군과 식품불충분군이 높게 나타났으나, 과체중 이상은 식품 충분·다양군이 가장 높은 결과를 보였다. 또한 식품충분·비다양군은 규칙적인 아침식사를 제외한 모든 요인에서 식품 충분·다양군과 차이가 있었으며, 대중교통과 의료서비스를 제외한 모든 요인에서 식품불충분군과 차이가 있었다. 식품충분성 및 다양성과 관련된 개인간 요인과 지역사회 요인을 파악하기 위해 사회인구학적 요인, 개인간 요인, 지역사회 요인을 모두 고려하여 다변량로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시한 결과 식품충분·다양군에 비해 식품충분·비다양군과 식품불충분군에서는 사회적 연결망이 미흡하고, 사회적 활동이 활발하지 않았으며, 안전한 환경, 생활환경, 의료서비스 등에 대하여 불만족하였다. 본 연구에서는 지역사회건강조사 또는 국민건강영양조사에서 식품안정군으로 분류되지만 다양성을 확보하지 못한 군을 분류하여 분석하였고, 그 결과 식품충분·비다양군은 식품불충분군 뿐 아니라 식품충분·다양군과도 개인적 요인, 개인간 요인, 지역사회 요인에서 유의적인 차이가 있었다. 이와 같이 사회인구학적 특성, 건강 행동, 건강상태 등의 개인적 요인과 사회적 연결망, 사회적 활동 등의 개인간 요인, 그리고 지역사회 환경 등이 식품충분성 및 다양성과 관련된 요인으로 규명되어, 식품불안정과 관련된 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 식품의 다양한 공급을 고려한 식품지원 정책과 더불어 사회적 연결망과 사회적 활동을 촉진시킬 수 있는 다양한 영양교육 프로그램 개발 등이 지역사회의 환경 개선 정책과 함께 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.
