Abstract

OBJECTIVE

To examine the relationship between diet quality and frequency of family meals throughout childhood and adolescence.

METHODS

Cross-sectional study of children ages birth through 17 years (n = 1,992) using data from the 2010 North Carolina Child Health and Monitoring Program. Multiple logistic regression was used to estimate the associations between family meals and fruit intake, vegetable intake, and sugar-sweetened beverage intake among younger children, older children, and adolescents.

RESULTS

In adjusted analyses, participating in ≥ 5 family meals/wk was associated with less sugar-sweetened beverage intake among younger (OR 2.04; CI 1.06-3.93) and older children (OR 2.12; 95% CI 1.27-3.55), greater vegetable intake among older children (OR 1.87; 95% CI 1.08-3.24) and adolescents (OR 1.81; 95% CI 1.14-2.88), and greater fruit intake among adolescents (OR 2.11; 95% CI 1.40-3.19).

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS

Strategies to encourage families to establish regular family meals early in life and continue them throughout childhood and adolescence is warranted.

摘要

目的

研究儿童期和青少年期饮食质量与家庭聚餐频率之间的关系。

方法

利用2010年北卡罗来纳州儿童健康与监测项目的数据，对出生至17岁的儿童（n = 1992）进行横断面研究。采用多元逻辑回归分析来估计幼儿、大龄儿童和青少年家庭聚餐与水果摄入量、蔬菜摄入量和含糖饮料摄入量之间的关联。

结果

在调整分析中，每周参与≥5次家庭聚餐与幼儿（比值比2.04；置信区间1.06 - 3.93）和大龄儿童（比值比2.12；95%置信区间1.27 - 3.55）含糖饮料摄入量减少有关，与大龄儿童（比值比1.87；95%置信区间1.08 - 3.24）和青少年（比值比1.81；95%置信区间1.14 - 2.88）蔬菜摄入量增加有关，与青少年（比值比2.11；95%置信区间1.40 - 3.19）水果摄入量增加有关。
