Abstract

This study evaluated the dietary habits and health behaviors of Korean adolescents according to their nutrition label utilization. This study was conducted on the adolescents aged between 12 and 18 who participated in the 2016-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Subjects were classified into nutrition label utilizing group and non-utilizing group. Then the general information, diet habit and nutrient intakes, health status and obesity and mental health of the two groups were analyzed. There was no significant difference in skipping breakfast, frequency of eating out, smoking status and alcohol drinking status according to the utilization of nutrition labels. Nutrition label utilizing group had higher % KDRI of protein(p<0.05), calcium (p<0.01), phosphorus(p<0.01) and potassium intakes(p<0.01) than non-utilizing group. Nutrition label utilizing group had higher EQ-5D score(0.97) than non-utilizing group(p<0.001). Practical nutrition education using nutrition label is needed. So these results can be useful for supporting dietary education regarding use of nutrition label for adolescents.

본 연구는 국민건강영양조사 제 7기 2016년~2018년 자료를 활용하여, 만 12~18세 남녀 청소년 1,068을 대상으로 영양표시 이용여부에 따른 식습관 및 영양소 섭취와 건강행태 등을 비교하여 영양표시 이용과 올바른 식생활 관리를 위한 기초자료로 제공하고자 하였다. 본 연구결과 전체적으로 영양표시를 인지하는 비율은 91.9%였고, 이들 중 영양표시를 이용하는 청소년은 27.9%로 인지율에 비해 이용률이 낮았다. 아침결식률과 외식빈도, 음주, 흡연, 주관적 건강상태의 경우는 영양표시 이용군과 비이용군별 간에 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다. 영양소 섭취량의 경우 무기질인 칼슘, 인, 칼륨 섭취량은 이용군이 비이용군의 섭취량 보다 더 높게 나타났다(p<0.01). 영양표시 이용군에게서 섭취 영양소 중 단백질(p<0.05), 칼슘(p<0.01), 인(p<0.01), 칼륨(p<0.01)의 섭취기준 비율이 비이용군에 비해 높게 나타났다. EQ-5D index로 분석한 건강 관련 삶의 질 점수는 영양표시 이용군은 0.97점, 비이용군은 0.96점으로 영양표시 이용군의 삶의 질 점수가 비이용군 보다 더 높았다(p<0.001). 이상의 연구결과 청소년들의 식생활 개선과 영양표시제 관련 영양교육이 매우 필요하며, 청소년들의 합리적인 식품선택을 도와주고 영양표시 활용도를 높일 수 있는 체계적인 영양 교육이 이루어져야 한다. 따라서 본 연구는 청소년의 올바른 영양표시 이용과 식생활 관리를 위한 영양교육의 기초자료를 마련하는데 유용한 정보로 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
