In industrialized countries characterized by a high prevalence of obesity and chronic stress, mind-body practices such as yoga or meditation may facilitate body weight control. However, virtually no data are available to ascertain whether practicing mind-body techniques is associated with weight status. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the practice of mind-body techniques and weight status in a large population-based sample of adults.
A total of 61,704 individuals aged ≥18 years participating in the NutriNet-Santé study (2009-2014) were included in this cross-sectional analysis conducted in 2014. Data on mind-body practices were collected, as well as self-reported weight and height. The association between the practice of mind-body techniques and weight status was assessed using multiple linear and multinomial logistic regression models adjusted for sociodemographic, lifestyle, and dietary factors.
After adjusting for sociodemographic and lifestyle factors, regular users of mind-body techniques were less likely to be overweight (OR=0.68, 95% CI=0.63, 0.74) or obese (OR=0.55, 95% CI=0.50, 0.61) than never users. In addition, regular users had a lower BMI than never users (-3.19%, 95% CI=-3.71, -2.68).
These data provide novel information about an inverse relationship between mind-body practice and weight status. If causal links were demonstrated in further prospective studies, such practice could be fostered in obesity prevention and treatment.
在以肥胖和慢性应激高患病率为特征的工业化国家,瑜伽或冥想等身心锻炼方法可能有助于控制体重。然而,几乎没有数据可用于确定进行身心锻炼技巧是否与体重状况相关。本研究的目的是在一个基于大量成年人的样本中,检验身心锻炼技巧的实践与体重状况之间的关系。
共有61704名年龄≥18岁且参与了NutriNet-Santé研究(2009 - 2014年)的个体被纳入2014年进行的这项横断面分析。收集了有关身心锻炼实践的数据,以及自我报告的体重和身高。使用针对社会人口统计学、生活方式和饮食因素进行调整的多元线性和多项逻辑回归模型,评估身心锻炼技巧的实践与体重状况之间的关联。
在对社会人口统计学和生活方式因素进行调整后,经常进行身心锻炼技巧的使用者比从不使用者超重(OR = 0.68,95% CI = 0.63,0.74)或肥胖(OR = 0.55,95% CI = 0.50,0.61)的可能性更低。此外,经常使用者的体重指数比从不使用者低(-3.19%,95% CI = -3.71,-2.68)。
这些数据提供了关于身心锻炼实践与体重状况之间反向关系的新信息。如果在进一步的前瞻性研究中证明存在因果联系,那么这种锻炼方法可用于肥胖的预防和治疗。
