背景资料:最近在世界范围内的肥胖患病率的增加,建议主要是由环境,促进久坐和过度的食物intake.Objective:我们调查的身体质量指数(BMI)和肥胖与体力活动,食物的选择,饮酒,吸烟史。此外,我们研究了这些协会的一致性随着时间的推移,与评估的目的是否相关的肥胖的生活方式变量的意义增加了超过15-yperiod.Design:独立的横断面调查进行了1982年,1987年,1992年和1997年。总共有24604名随机选择的男性和女性(年龄在25-64岁之间)参加了这些调查。受试者的体重和身高进行测量,并收集生活方式的数据与自我管理的questionnaire.Results:在男性和女性,认为一般健康状况,休闲时间的体力活动,和每日蔬菜消费量呈负相关与肥胖,如面包消费的女性和男性的工作活动。香肠、牛奶和酸奶的消费以及繁重的工作(仅限女性)与肥胖呈正相关。肥胖还与饮酒和吸烟史有关。大多数协会是恒定的15年期间。然而,BMI与女性身体活动和男性健康感知的负相关性似乎随着时间的推移而加强。结论:积极的生活方式与戒烟,适度饮酒和健康食品的消费最大限度地提高了正常体重的机会。避免久坐的重要性随着时间的推移而增加,这是与正常体重相关的一个因素。
Background: Recent increases in the prevalence of obesity worldwide are suggested to be caused largely by an environment that promotes sedentariness and excessive food intake.Objective: We investigated associations of body mass index (BMI) and obesity with physical activity, food choices, alcohol consumption, and smoking history. In addition, we examined the consistency of these associations over time, with the aim of assessing whether the significance of lifestyle variables as correlates of obesity increased over a 15-y period.Design: Independent cross-sectional surveys were carried out in 1982, 1987, 1992, and 1997. Altogether, 24604 randomly selected men and women (aged 25-64 y) participated in these surveys. The subjects' weights and heights were measured, and data on lifestyle were collected with self-administered questionnaires.Results: In men and women, perceived general health, leisure-time physical activity, and daily vegetable consumption were inversely associated with obesity, as were bread consumption in women and activity at work in men. Consumption of sausages, milk, and sour milk and heavy work (in women only) were positively associated with obesity. Obesity was also associated with alcohol consumption and smoking history. Most associations were constant over the 15-y period. However, the inverse associations of BMI with physical activity in women and with perceived health in men seemed to strengthen over time.Conclusions: A physically active lifestyle with abstention from smoking, moderate alcohol consumption, and consumption of healthy foods maximizes the chances of having a normal weight. The significance of avoiding sedentariness increases over time as a factor associated with normal weight.
