Abstract

Background: Hypercholesterolemia, defined as cholesterol levels of 200 mg/dl or above, is often attributable to lifestyle shifts, including changes in dietary habits, particularly noticeable in young adults. Objectives: This study seeks to establish the relationship between patterns of fast food and sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption, dietary fiber intake, and blood cholesterol levels in young adults. Methods: An observational, cross-sectional study was conducted on 100 participants, selected through purposive sampling. The selection criteria included age between 18-25, non-smokers, no prior diagnosis of dyslipidemia or CHD, no family history of dyslipidemia, and not currently on a diet. The Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) was used to gather data on fast food and SSB intake, dietary fiber intake was assessed through food records, and cholesterol levels were measured using the Easy Touch GCU tool. The chi-square likelihood test and Spearman rank were used to analyze the data. Results: The study revealed that 48% of participants had cholesterol levels of ≥200 mg/dl. Descriptive analysis showed that 46% of participants frequently consumed fast food, 53% frequently consumed SSBs, and all participants had a daily fiber intake of less than 25 g. Bivariate analysis revealed significant correlations between cholesterol levels and patterns of fast-food consumption (p-value=0.000), SSB intake (p-value=0.000), and dietary fiber intake (p-value=0.019), all with a negative directional correlation. Conclusions: Young adults with cholesterol levels of ≥200 mg/dl were predominantly those who frequently consumed fast food and SSBs, and had a low intake of dietary fiber.

Abstract

Background: Obesity is a global nutrition issue marked by excess body fat and elevated risk of non-communicable diseases. Tele-nutrition counselling has emerged as an alternative strategy to improve dietary behaviour alongside physical activity. Objectives: The study aimed to investigate the effects of tele-nutrition counselling on diet quality and body fat percentage in obese adults. Methods: A quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test control-group design was used with 56 adults selected through purposive sampling, allocated to a control group (exercise) and an intervention group (tele-nutrition counselling + exercise). Both groups received an 8-week physical activity program, while counselling was only given to the intervention group. Diet quality was assessed using a 2×24-hour recall and body fat percentage by BIA OMRON. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon, Paired T-Test, Mann-Whitney, and Independent T-Test. Results: The intervention had an effect on diet quality (p-value=0.038) and body fat percentage (p-value=0.03) in the intervention group. There was no effect on diet quality (p-value=0.556) or percent body fat (p-value=0.448) in the control group. There was a difference in effect on diet quality (p-value=0.038) and no difference in effect on body fat percent (p-value=0.091) in both groups. Conclusions: The intervention affected diet quality and body fat percent in the intervention group but not in the control group. Although the intervention successfully improved diet quality, its impact on body fat percentage was not observed among groups, suggesting that improving eating behaviour needs to be accompanied by other intervention components, such as increased physical activity and a longer program duration.
