“…The positive association between parental education and S-HEI score found in the current study coincides with others reporting that parenteral education plays a role in the adoption of healthier eating behaviors [ 46 ]. Specifically, parental education was associated with an increased consumption of fruits and vegetables [ 47 ].…”

Adolescence is a key period for consolidating heathy lifestyles and proper eating habits that can last into adulthood. To analyze the diet quality of Spanish adolescents and its association with socioeconomic factors and health behaviors by gender, a cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the DESKcohort project, consisting of a biannual panel survey on health, health behaviors, and associated determinants, collected in secondary education centers. The study population consisted of 7319 students aged 12 to 18 years. Data were collected from October 2019 to March 2020. The dependent variable was diet quality score according to the Spanish adaptation of the Healthy Eating Index (S-HEI). The independent variables included were socioeconomic factors and health behaviors. We conducted linear regression separately by gender. Diet quality score was significantly higher for girls than for boys (68 and 65, respectively, p < 0.001). For both genders, poorer diet quality was associated with a low level of physical activity [−0.9 (95% CI = −1.6:−0.2) in boys, −1.2 (95% CI = −1.9:−0.4) in girls], alcohol use [−2.5 (95% CI = −3.7:−1.3) in boys, −1.0 (95% CI = −1.9:0.0) in girls], poor self-perceived health [−1.1 (95% CI = −2.4:0.2) in boys, −3.5 (95% CI = −4.6:−2.4) in girls], and having attended Intermediate Level Training Cycles [−2.9 (95% CI = −4.3:−1.5) in boys, −1.9 (95% CI = −3.5:−0.3) in girls]. In girls, poorer diet quality also was associated with low mood [−1.1 (95% CI = −1.9:−0.3)]. The variance was 9% in boys and 12% in girls. Our results highlight the need to consider socioeconomic and health-related factors, as well as gender, when conducting interventions to promote healthy eating among adolescents.

“…On the other hand, MD adherence was inversely correlated with age. This could be associated with the greater influence of peers with increasing age, alongside increases in autonomy and financial independence (18) . With regard to indicators of mental wellbeing, adolescents with greater MD adherence also reported higher levels of health-related quality of life and body satisfaction.…”

“…In this way, choices regarding food consumption can be determined at an individual level according to age, nationality, sex, preferences, nutritional knowledge, physiological state and psychological factors (15)(16)(17) . On the other hand, socio-cultural factors such as social norms, the influence of family and peers, socio-economic status, the media and social networks appear to play a mediatory role over dietary habits (18,19) . Finally, the influence of setting, in the same way as access to and availability of healthy foods, also intervenes in dietary choices (20) .…”

Factors associated with adherence to a Mediterranean diet in adolescents from La Rioja (Spain)

et al. 2020

The aim of the present study was to describe Mediterranean diet adherence within a population of adolescents and to analyse the association of multiple factors with adherence. This included a consideration of diverse physical and mental health indicators. The present study was conducted with a representative sample of 761 adolescents (14.51 ± 1.63 years) from 25 educational centres in a northern region of Spain. Mediterranean diet adherence was evaluated, alongside their health-related quality of life, self-esteem, body image satisfaction, body mass index, physical activity level, maximum oxygen consumption, hours of nightly sleep, sociodemographic factors and academic performance. Forty-nine percent of the adolescent population reported high Mediterranean diet adherence. The female gender and higher levels of physical activity were found to be predictive factors of adherence to the Mediterranean diet. In addition, maximum oxygen consumption, the presence of environments favourable towards physical activity engagement and higher self-esteem were also predictive in females, whilst better academic performance and more nightly sleep were additional predictors in males. The associations found between Mediterranean diet, and other health indicators and habits, highlight the need to develop promotion strategies from an inter-disciplinary and transversal standpoint.

“…In the present study, the socioeconomic status and the mother's schooling were not associated with the outcome. However, some authors demonstrated that not having breakfast frequently was significantly more common among children and adolescents with lower socioeconomic status or whose mothers had fewer years of schooling [11,[44][45][46][47].…”

Objective To estimate the association of infrequent breakfast consumption with socioeconomic, behavioral, and individual factors in a sample of Brazilian adolescents from public schools. Methods Cross-sectional study with adolescents aged from 14 to 19 from public schools in Juiz de Fora, state of Minas Gerais. The frequency of consumption of breakfast, snacks, soft drinks, industrialized drinks, the usual food consumption, body mass index, body fat percentage, and waist circumference were evaluated. Other socioeconomic, behavioral, and individual data were obtained through questionnaires. Logistic regression analysis and hierarchical selection of variables were used to verify the associated factors. Results The sample consisted of 805 adolescents; 53.4% reported infrequent breakfast consumption. Through hierarchical logistic regression analysis, it was evidenced that the house occupancy status (OR: 0.618; 95%CI: 0.4410.865; p=0.005) was the distal factor associated with infrequent breakfast consumption; the intermediate factors were the consumption of industrialized beverages (OR: 0.658; 95%CI: 0.486-0.890; p=0.007) and percentage of energy from processed foods (OR: 0.935; 95%CI: 0.907-0.964; p<0.001); and the proximal factors were the male gender (OR: 0.696; 95%CI: 0.520-0.932; p=0.0015) and being nonwhite (OR: 1.529; 95%CI: 1.131-2.069; p=0.006). Conclusion Male adolescents who lived in owned houses, with occasional consumption of industrialized beverages and a higher percentage of energy derived from processed foods, had lower chances of infrequent breakfast consumption, while non-white adolescents had higher chances.
