Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dietary habits, health status, and nutrients status of male college students in Seoul according to vegetarian habits. The heights of lacto-ovo vegetarian and non-vegetarian students were not significantly different. However, body weight was significantly higher in the non-vegetarians. The lacto-ovo-vegetarians were vegetarians for religious reasons, and indicated 86.0% satisfaction with their meals. However, the lacto-ovo vegetarian and non-vegetarians showed concerns about low nutrient intakes. Lacto-ovo vegetarians displayed a higher proportion of meal regularity and daily breakfast as compared to non-vegetarians. In addition, their favorite food when eating out was Korean food. Lacto-ovo vegetarians showed higher intakes of milk or other dairy products (yogurt, etc.), vegetables, and fruit, as well as more regular eating habits. In contrast, the non-vegetarians showed higher intakes of high-protein foods (eggs, beans, tofu, etc.) and fatty foods. Lacto-ovo vegetarians showed lower intakes of total energy, as well as vitamins $B_2$, $B_6$, and niacin. Non-vegetarians showed in sufficient dietary fiber intake. In conclusion, lacto-ovo-vegetarians need a meal plan to consider the intake of other nutrients, while non-vegetarians should try to prevent the occurrence of health problems due to excessive intake of nutrients.

본 연구는 노원구 S대에 재학 중인 남자 대학생을 대상으로 lacto-ovo-vegetarian과 non-vegetarian으로 나누어 신체계측, 건강상태, 식습관 및 영양소 섭취상태를 비교하여 건강에 대한 기초 자료로 사용하고자 실시하였다. 1. Lacto-ovo vegetarian과 non-vegetarian의 신장은 차이가 없었지만, 체중은 non-vegetarian에서 유의하게 높았다(p<0.05). 2. Lacto-ovo vegetarian은 종교적인 이유로 채식을 하고 있었으며, 영양학적으로 채식 식사의 만족도는 86.0%를 차지하였다. 3. Lacto-ovo vegetarian과 non-vegetarian은 건강에 대한 관심도와 영양제 복용율은 낮은 편이었으며, 운동을 하는 비율은 lacto-ovo vegetarian 64.0%와 non-vegetarian 61.4%가 한다고 답하였다. 4. Lacto-ovo vegetarian은 non-vegetarian에 비해 식사를 규칙적으로 하였으며, 매일 아침식사를 하는 비율이 높았다. 또한 전체 조사대상자들은 모두 외식을 한다고 답하였으며, 외식 시 선호하는 음식으로는 한식을 선호하는 것으로 조사되었다. 5. Lacto-ovo vegetarian은 non-vegetarian에 비해 우유나 유제품(요구르트, 요플레 등)을 매일 1병 이상 마시는 점, 김치 이외의 채소를 식사할 때마다 먹는 점, 과일(1개)이나 과일주스(1잔)를 매일 먹는 점, 식사는 매일 세끼를 규칙적으로 한다는 점 및 모든 식품을 골고루 섭취하는 점에 대해 높은 경향을 보였다. 이에 비해 non-vegetarian은 달걀, 콩 및 두부 등으로 된 음식을 끼니마다 먹는 점과 튀김이나 기름에 볶는 요리를 주 2회 이상 먹는 점이 높은 경향을 보였다. 6. Lacto-ovo vegetarian의 경우, 에너지, 비타민 $B_2$, $B_6$ 및 니아신 섭취율이 낮은 반면에, 식이섬유는 충분히 섭취하고 있었다. 그러나 non-vegetarian은 식이섬유는 부족하게 섭취하였으나, 소디움, 콜레스테롤 등의 영양소는 과잉 섭취하는 것으로 조사되었다. 따라서 본 연구 결과를 종합해 보면, 건강관련사항이나 식습관에 있어서는 두 군 간에 큰 차이는 없었지만, 영양소 섭취상태에서는 lacto-ovo vegetarian과 non-vegetarian에 있어서 유의한 차이를 보였다. Lacto-ovo vegetarian의 경우에는 육류나 생선 섭취를 하지 않는 것을 고려하여 열량을 비롯한 다른 영양소의 섭취를 충분히 할 수 있도록 신중한 식사계획이 필요하며, 식품교환표를 이용한 대체식품의 이용률을 증가시켜야 할 것으로 사료된다. 또한 non-vegetarian의 경우는 지속적인 영양소의 과잉 섭취로 인한 건강상의 문제점이 발생되지 않도록 노력해야 할 것이다.
