这项研究的主要目的是确定四种自我报告的饮食行为(睡前进食,两餐之间进食,进食后3小时内感到饥饿,以及进食超过饱腹感)作为超重和肥胖风险因素的相关性。样本包括35- 49岁,绝经前的非裔美国人(n=580)和白人(n=398)的妇女,从一个大型的城市预付费健康计划的成员随机选择。吃得过饱是唯一与体重指数(BMI)相关的行为。与那些很少或从不吃得过饱的人相比,高加索女性肥胖的几率增加了6倍,非洲裔美国女性每天吃得过饱的几率增加了15倍。此外,吃得过饱也是唯一与肥胖发病年龄相关的饮食行为。在减肥计划中关注这种饮食行为可能很重要。
The primary goal of this study was to determine the relevance of four self-reported eating behaviors (eating before bedtime, eating between meals, feeling hungry within 3 h of eating, and eating beyond satiation) as risk factors for overweight and obesity. The sample consisted of 35- to 49-year-old, premenopausal African American (n=580) and Caucasian (n=398) women, randomly selected from the membership of a large urban prepaid health plan. Eating beyond satiation was the only behavior associated with body mass index (BMI). The odds of becoming obese increased 6-fold for Caucasian women and 15-fold for African American women who ate beyond satiation everyday compared to those who rarely or never ate beyond satiation. Additionally, eating beyond satiation was also the only eating behavior associated with the age of obesity onset. Focusing on this eating behavior in weight loss programs may be important.
