“…People with a lower socio-economic status, as characterised by a low income level, low education level and low food security, were consistently reported to consume less amounts of flavonoids (10,37,46) , which seem to be attributable to lower amounts of fruits and vegetables (49)(50)(51) . Moreover, unhealthy lifestyles that included regular alcohol drinking, current smoking, irregular physical activity and infrequent breakfast consumption also resulted in an inadequate intake of flavonoid-high food items such as fruits and vegetables (50)(51)(52)(53) . The significant difference in flavonoid intake between supplement users and non-users in our study was also shown by other researchers (35,43) .…”

Epidemiological studies have suggested that flavonoids exhibit preventive effects on degenerative diseases. However, lack of sufficient data on flavonoid intake has limited evaluating the proposed effects in populations. Therefore, we aimed to estimate the total and individual flavonoid intakes among Korean adults and determine the major dietary sources of these flavonoids. We constructed a flavonoid database of common Korean foods, based on the food list reported in the 24-h recall of the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) 2007-2012, using data from the Korea Functional Food Composition Table, US Department of Agriculture flavonoid database, Phenol-Explorer database and other analytical studies. This database, which covers 49 % of food items and 76 % of food intake, was linked with the 24-h recall data of 33 581 subjects aged ≥19 years in the KNHANES 2007-2012. The mean daily intake of total flavonoids in Korean adults was 318·0 mg/d, from proanthocyanidins (22·3 %), flavonols (20·3 %), isoflavones (18·1 %), flavan-3-ols (16·2 %), anthocyanidins (11·6 %), flavanones (11·3 %) and flavones (0·3 %). The major contributing food groups to the flavonoid intake were fruits (54·4 %), vegetables (20·5 %), legumes and legume products (16·2 %) and beverages and alcohols (3·1 %), and the major contributing food items were apples (21·9 %), mandarins (12·5 %), tofu (11·5 %), onions (9·6 %) and grapes (9·0 %). In the regression analysis, the consumption of legumes and legume products, vegetables and fruits predicted total flavonoid intake the most. The findings of this study could facilitate further investigation on the health benefits of flavonoids and provide the basic information for establishing recommended flavonoid intakes for Koreans.

“…This finding is consistent with Hisayama study’s result [ 12 ] suggesting that the intake of lactic acid foods with probiotics was associated significantly with periodontitis, but that milk intake was not. Several studies reported that probiotics application was likely to have beneficial effects on periodontal disease [ 16 , 17 , 24 ], and it is suggested that probiotics produce metabolic substance such as reuterin which has the activity inhibiting the growth of periodontopathic bacteria [ 16 ]. However, there are few studies on the effect of probiotics of yogurt on periodontitis.…”

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the lower intakes of yogurt, milk, and calcium are associated with periodontitis in a nationally representative sample of Korean adults. This study comprised 6,150 adults 19 or more years old who took both periodontal examination and nutrition survey. The frequency of yogurt and milk intake was examined with a food frequency questionnaire. The amount of calcium intake was calculated with dietary intakes data gained from complete one-day 24-hour recall interviews. Periodontitis was assessed using the Community Periodontal Index (CPI). Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed for the whole sample and subgroups with the strata of age, gender, or smoking, in a complex sampling design. Less intake of yogurt was significantly associated with periodontitis (odds ratio [OR] 0.82, 95% confidential interval [CI] 0.70–0.97), but neither less intake of milk (OR 1.04, 95% CI 0.89–1.20) nor lower intake of calcium (OR 1.04, 95% CI 0.89–1.21) was significantly associated with periodontitis. In the subgroup analysis, no difference in the association of yogurt intake with periodontitis was found according to the strata of age, gender, and smoking. In conclusion, periodonitis was significantly associated with the less intake of yogurt among the Korean adults, but the calcium contained in yogurt is not likely to cause it.

“…This result was similar to results in other studies reporting that a low education level is related to DM in women but not in men [ 28 – 30 ]. Women with a higher SES have been shown to eat adequate foods [ 31 , 32 ] and manage their weight through regular exercise and by checking their health status periodically. Education affects the acquisition and comprehension of health knowledge, and women with higher levels of education have easier access to information and resources that are helpful for health improvement; additionally, women in general have a higher level of interest in health issues than men.…”

BackgroundTo investigate the effects of age and sex on the relationship between socioeconomic status (SES) and the prevalence and control status of diabetes mellitus (DM) in Korean adults.MethodsData came from 16,175 adults (6,951 men and 9,227 women) over the age of 30 who participated in the 2008-2010 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. SES was measured by household income or education level. The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for the prevalence or control status of diabetes were calculated using multiple logistic regression analyses across household income quartiles and education levels.ResultsThe household income-DM and education level-DM relationships were significant in younger age groups for both men and women. The adjusted ORs and 95% CI for diabetes were 1.51 (0.97, 2.34) and 2.28 (1.29, 4.02) for the lowest vs. highest quartiles of household income and education level, respectively, in women younger than 65 years of age (both P for linear trend < 0.05 with Bonferroni adjustment). The adjusted OR and 95% CI for diabetes was 2.28 (1.53, 3.39) for the lowest vs. highest quartile of household income in men younger than 65 (P for linear trend < 0.05 with Bonferroni adjustment). However, in men and women older than 65, no associations were found between SES and the prevalence of DM. No significant association between SES and the status of glycemic control was detected.ConclusionsWe found age- and sex-specific differences in the relationship of household income and education with the prevalence of DM in Korea. DM preventive care is needed for groups with a low SES, particularly in young or middle-aged populations.
