Abstract

Purpose: The consumption of processed foods has recently been increasing due to changes in the living environment. The purpose of this study was to identify the contribution of processed food to the nutrient intake of adult Koreans. Methods: A total of 15,760 adult people in the $6^{th}$ National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2013 ~ 2015) were included in this study. According to the Korea Food and Drug Administration's classification criteria for processed foods, the 24 hour dietary recall data of the subjects were classified as processed food or natural food. The processed food intake, nutrient intake and major processed food sources by food groups were analyzed. Results: Men consumed more processed foods than did the women. Consumption of processed foods decreased with age, but it increased with the education level and the income level. The total daily processed food intake accounted for 68.1% of the total food intake. The food groups with high processed food intake were beverage, vegetables, cereals and grain products, fruits, and milk and dairy products in this order. The top food source of each food groups were beer, kimchi, bread, processed apple products, and milk. After adjusting for age, gender, and energy intake, all the nutrient intakes and percentage of dietary reference intakes for Koreans, except carbohydrates, were significantly higher in processed foods than in natural foods. The sodium intake from the processed food was 96.3% of total daily sodium intake. The intakes of nutrients from processed foods, excluding vitamins C, dietary fiber, iron, and vitamin A, were higher in men than in women. The intake of sodium from processed foods was highest for people of 30 ~ 49 years of age, and the intake of sodium from processed foods decreased for people over 50. Conclusion: Korean adults consumed more processed food than the natural food, consuming more calories and most of the nutrients from the processed food overall total daily intakes. The intake of processed foods is expected to further increase in the future, and nutritional education and research on the ingestion and selection of healthy processed foods are necessary.

우리나라 국민의 가공식품 섭취 증가로 인해 가공식품으로부터의 영양소 섭취는 개인의 건강을 유지하는 식생활의 중요한 요인으로 작용하게 되었다. 그러므로 본 연구는 가공식품으로부터의 열량 및 영양소의 섭취 기여를 파악하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 나이, 성별, 에너지 섭취량을 보정 한 결과, 가공식품의 섭취량은 남자가 여자보다 유의적으로 많이 섭취하였고, 나이가 증가할수록 적게 섭취하였다. 또한, 소득이 높고, 학력이 높을수록 총 가공식품의 섭취량이 유의적으로 많았다. 가공식품 섭취는 총식품 섭취량의 68.1%로 원재료식품보다 높았고, 곡류, 버섯류, 기타류를 제외한 모든 식품군에서 가공식품 섭취비율이 유의적으로 높았다. 음료 및 주류에서 가공식품 섭취량이 가장 높았다. 가공식품 섭취량이 많은 상위 5개 식품군인 음료 및 주류군, 채소군, 곡류군, 과일군, 유류군에서 다소비 가공식품은 빵, 김치, 사과가공품, 우유, 맥주로 나타났다. 나이, 성별, 에너지 섭취량을 보정 한 결과, 탄수화물을 제외한 조사된 모든 영양소 섭취량 및 영양소 섭취기준 비율은 원재료식품 식품에서보다 가공식품에서 유의적으로 높았다. 총 에너지 대비 탄수화물 섭취 비율은 가공식품에서 낮았고 단백질, 지질로부터의 에너지 섭취비율이 가공식품에서 높았다. 특히 나트륨의 경우, 가공식품에서 섭취가 96.3%로 가공식품으로부터 가장 높게 섭취하는 영양소로 나타났다. 나이, 에너지 섭취량을 보정 한 결과, 가공식품에서 영양소 섭취량은 남성이 여성보다 많았다 (비타민 C, 식이섬유, 철분, 비타민 A 제외). 가공식품에서 비타민 C 섭취량은 여성에서 높았고, 식이섬유, 철분, 비타민 A 섭취량은 성별에 따른 차이가 없었다. 성별, 에너지 섭취량, BMI를 보정 한 결과, 가공식품에서 철, 비타민 A, 비타민 C의 섭취량은 20대에 비하여 30 ~ 64세에서 섭취량이 증가하였고 65세 이상에서는 감소하였다. 가공식품으로부터의 나트륨 섭취량은 30 ~ 49세에 가장 높았고, 50세 이상에서는 섭취량이 감소하였다. 결론적으로 한국 성인의 경우 1일 총 식이 섭취량에서 가공식품 섭취량이 원재료식품보다 많았으며 가공식품으로부터 더 많은 열량과 및 대부분 영양소를 섭취하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 가공식품의 섭취는 앞으로 더 늘어날 것으로 예상하여 건강한 가공식품의 섭취와 선택에 관한 연구와 영양교육이 필요한 것으로 생각한다.
