To evaluate the correspondence of diet and lifestyle to the Mediterranean model in two groups of Italian and Spanish university students.
A cross-sectional nutritional survey to determine BMI, dietary habits (FFQ), energy daily expenditure and lifestyle (SenseWear Armband; BodyMedia Inc.), and to define the Mediterranean diet quality index (MDQI) in the different student groups.
Bologna (Italy) and León (Spain).
The survey was carried out on 210 (105 Italian; 105 Spanish) university students (mean age 27.0 (sd 3.8) years) of two different Mediterranean areas, Bologna (Italy) and León (Spain).
The frequency of consumption of some food groups showed differences related to nationality and gender. Some classic Mediterranean foods such as cereals and vegetables were generally consumed more frequently by Italian students; others such as fish and pulses by Spanish students. Percentage of overweight was higher among Spanish students in spite of their higher physical activity level.
Young generations seem to give up the traditional Mediterranean dietary pattern, adopting new dietary trends. Overweight appears to be related not only to physical activity level, but also to the poor MDQI.
评估两组意大利和西班牙大学生的饮食和生活方式与地中海模式的契合度。
一项横断面营养调查，以确定体重指数、饮食习惯（食物频率问卷）、每日能量消耗和生活方式（SenseWear臂带；BodyMedia公司），并确定不同学生群体的地中海饮食质量指数（MDQI）。
博洛尼亚（意大利）和莱昂（西班牙）。
对来自两个不同地中海地区——博洛尼亚（意大利）和莱昂（西班牙）的210名大学生（平均年龄27.0（标准差3.8）岁）（105名意大利学生；105名西班牙学生）进行了调查。
某些食物组的消费频率显示出与国籍和性别的差异。一些经典的地中海食物，如谷物和蔬菜，意大利学生通常食用频率更高；其他食物，如鱼类和豆类，西班牙学生食用频率更高。尽管西班牙学生的身体活动水平较高，但超重百分比更高。
年轻一代似乎正在放弃传统的地中海饮食模式，采用新的饮食趋势。超重似乎不仅与身体活动水平有关，还与MDQI较差有关。
