“…An association between anemia and obesity in youngsters has been shown recently [24,40]. Overweight girls from the same sample analyzed in this study presented lower Hb levels than those who were not overweight [41]. Thus, the increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity in Brazilian adolescents [42] could perhaps be associated with the high prevalence of anemia in this age range.…”

Aims: The association between the intake of iron, vitamins A and C and calcium and the prevalence of anemia and hemoglobin (Hb) levels was investigated in adolescents. Methods: A cross-sectional study was developed with 529 Brazilian students. Anemia was defined in terms of Hb concentration. Nutrient intake was assessed by a 3-day food record. The association between the prevalence of inadequate nutrient intake and anemia was estimated by the χ² test, and that between nutrient intake and Hb by linear regression. Results: The prevalence of inadequate nutrient intake did not differ between nonanemic and anemic subjects. Anemic adolescents had a lower mean intake of iron than nonanemic adolescents. Among boys aged 11-13 years, the anemic subjects had lower vitamin C intake than those who were nonanemic (41.1 vs. 62.6 mg, p < 0.01), and among those aged 14-19 years, there was a tendency for a positive association between Hb and heme iron intake (β = 0.64, p = 0.06) and a negative association with calcium intake (β = -0.003, p = 0.02). In females, daily nutrient intake did not differ between anemic and nonanemic individuals. Conclusions: Heme iron and vitamin C are possible protective factors against anemia in boys. However, the lack of association between inadequate iron intake and anemia, especially in girls, suggests that other factors beyond diet could explain anemia in this age range.

“…The absence of a correlation between BFP and Hb levels is similar to a study on adolescent subjects where anemia was not correlated with BMI and BFP. However, in general, obesity remained correlated with low levels of Hb (Bagni et al, 2013). Table IV shows that WC and WHR are correlated with hemoglobin levels.…”

Latar belakang: Obesitas merupakan keadaan tubuh dimana terjadi kelebihan akumulasi lemak. Semakin tinggi lemak akan mengakibatkan inflamasi yang berisiko terjadinya anemia defisiensi besi. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui perbedaan asupan zat gizi dan kadar hemoglobin pada remaja perempuan obesitas dan tidak obesitas. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observational dengan desain cross sectional. Subjek penelitian adalah remaja 15-18 tahun remaja perempuan SMA Negeri 15 Semarang. Subjek terbagi atas kelompok obesitas (n = 30) dan kelompok tidak obesitas (n = 30). Kadar hemoglobin diuji dengan metode cyanmethemoglobin. Uji analisis statistik menggunakan uji Independent t-test dan Mann Whitney. Hasil: Kadar hemoglobin pada kelompok obesitas mempunyai nilai rerata lebih rendah (12,52 ± 1,34 g/dl) dibandingkan dengan kelompok tidak obesitas (12,62±1,48 g/dl). Asupan zat gizi (protein, besi, zinc, tembaga, vitamin A, vitamin C) pada kelompok obesitas mempunyai nilai rerata lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan kelompok tidak obesitas. Namun, tidak bermakna secara statistik (p>0,05). Simpulan: Tidak ada perbedaan asupan zat gizi dan kadar hemoglobin yang signifikan pada kelompok obesitas dan tidak obesitas. Kadar hemoglobin pada kelompok obesitas dan tidak obesitas dalam batas normal.
