The association between deficiency of nutrient intake and resting metabolic rate in overweight and obese women: a cross-sectional study

Abstract

Objective The double burden of malnutrition is an emerging public health concern nowadays which a correlation with obesity. This study aimed to examine the relationship between resting metabolic rate (RMR) and dietary intake of zinc, vitamin C, and riboflavin in overweight and obese women. Results The RMR/FFM showed a significant association with riboflavin (β = 1.59; 95% CI 1.04–23.26, P = 0.04) and zinc (β = 0.78; 95% CI 1.04–4.61, P = 0.03) in the crude model. Moreover, differences in vitamin C and RMR/FFM was marginal significant (β = 0.75; 95% CI 0.95–4.77, P = 0.06). After adjusting for confounders the riboflavin association change to marginal significance (β = 1.52; 95% CI 0.91–23.04, P = 0.06). After controlling for potential confounders, the associations change between zinc and RMR/FFM (β = 0.66; 95% CI 0.78–4.86, P = 0.15) and between RMR/FFM and vitamin C (β = 0.48; 95% CI 0.66–3.96, P = 0.28). Our study showed a significant association between dietary intake of zinc, riboflavin, and vitamin C and change in RMR/FFM in overweight and obese women.

The Effects of Zinc and Selenium Co-Supplementation on Resting Metabolic Rate, Thyroid Function, Physical Fitness, and Functional Capacity in Overweight and Obese People under a Hypocaloric Diet: A Randomized, Double-Blind, and Placebo-Controlled Trial

“…For example, Wang et al [ 76 ] reported a positive correlation of Zn hair content with RMR. Another study found a significant association between Zn intake and RMR in overweight and obese women [ 10 ]. However, the possible mechanisms which link Zn and RMR are poorly understood.…”

“…Growing evidence confirms that obesity increases the risk for nutritional deficiencies due to poor diet quality and a disruption of the bioavailability and metabolism of numerous nutrients despite the high caloric intake that characterizes the specific population [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Notably, in people with obesity undergoing a hypocaloric diet, a formula providing 100% of the Daily Recommended Intake could not prevent the nutritional deficiencies in some micronutrients [ 13 ].…”

The Association Between Low Carbohydrate Diet and Resting Metabolic Rate in Overweight and Obese Women: A Cross-Sectional Study

“…Following separation, the serum was removed and frozen at −80°C for later analysis. Fasting blood sugar (FBS) levels were evaluated by a colorimetric method based on the GOD-PAP method, triglyceride (TG) was assessed by GPO-PAP, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was evaluated by the direct method [ 15 ].…”

Hubungan Asupan Antioksidan Zinc Dengan Kejadian Kegemukan Pada Remaja Putri Di Kabupaten Majene

“…Berbeda dengan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Gholamalizadeh et.al (2021)18 menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan positif antara obesitas dengan INQ zinc. Adapun penelitian lain yang dilakukan oleh Sajjadi et.al 202119 menunjukkan bahwa adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara asupan makanan zinc dengan perubahan RMR/FFM pada wanita yang kelebihan berat badan dan obesitas. Selain itu, penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Zou et.al 202220 menunjukkan bahwa ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara anak-anak dan remaja dan antara siswa yang tinggal di perkotaan dan daerah pedesaan dengan asupan zinc(t>1,96, p<0,05).…”
