“…Beth Anderson and his colleagues showed the overall prevalence of fast food consumption with a result of 28% studying on Michigan adults (Anderson et al, 2011). Another cross sectional study among northeast Ohio residents showed a 42% prevalence of fast food consumption (Butt et al, 2007), whereas this study showed an increased prevalence in Bangladesh which was (81.97%) for daily fast food intake. In another survey, it was reported that, approximately 63% respondents took fast food at least once in a week (Moore et al, 2009), whereas this present data showed 11 out of 61 (81.03%) obese students took fast foods atleast once a week.…”

Obesity has become a new challenge for health care providers in the world, which leads to reduced life expectancy or increased health problems. The aim of the present study was to assess the prevalence and risk factors of obesity and hypertension among the undergraduate and postgraduate students in Rajshahi city. About 675 students were interviewed by standard questionnaires with their verbal consents. In this study, we found that a major portion of the population (13.93% which is about 94 students out of 675) were overweight and 61 students (9.04%) were obese at different stages on the basis of Body Mass Index (BMI) values where 75.41% and 31.15% were male and female students, respectively. About 31.15% of the obese students came from families with monthly income of 31000-40000 taka and 29.50% obese students have at least one obese parent. We also observed that about 32 students (52.46%) out of 61 obese students were pre-hypertensive and 34.43% obese students were stage I hypertensive patient. In this study, we found that the most common risk factors of obesity and hypertension among university students were sedentary life style, physical activity less than 30 min/day, smoking, frequent intake of soft drinks, fast food and food rich in fats (Junk food). This may be the first health survey conducted regarding obesity and hypertension among these university students in Bangladesh, which might be helpful for health workers to raise awareness among the mass people.

Abstract:Fast food consumption leading to excess calorie intake coupled with lack of adequate physical activity has increased the risk of obesity among the world population for the past few decades. A cross-sectional study was carried out from March to April 2014 among four hundred twenty six students selected by the use of systematic random sampling attending in an established private university of Bangladesh. The objective of this study was evaluating fast food consumption and prevalence of obesity among university students. The overall prevalence of fast food consumption was 55.9 % and 44.1 % for males and females, respectively. Approximately 56% of university students went to fast food restaurants at least once per week and 44 % went regularly (≥2 times/wk). Status of obesity was found to be significantly associated with frequenting fast-food restaurants; students going two or more times per week were more likely to be obese (OR 2.2; 95% CI 1.3-3.9). Obesity was detected among 56.2 % of those students going two or more times per week in fast food restaurants showed significantly high prevalence (X 2 =7.82, p<0.05). This study provides evidence of increasing trend in obesity among university students consuming fast foods regularly. A combined initiative from family, universities, public health experts and government is much needed to tackle this public health problem.

“…36 Thus, it is possible that participants in lower income strata preferentially consumed foods with highly absorbable and largely unaccounted phosphorus additives, explaining their higher likelihood of hyperphosphatemia compared with more affluent participants despite no differences in estimated phosphorus intake by income level. In support of this hypothesis are previous studies that have shown that diets rich in additive-containing foods increase serum phosphate levels; 37 greater fast food consumption is associated with higher serum phosphate despite negligible effects on estimated phosphorus intake; 25 and reduction in the consumption of these foods can significantly reduce serum phosphate. 28 The lack of a racial difference in serum phosphate among participants with the lowest income is particularly intriguing.…”

“…[23][24][25][26][27] High intake of these foods has been associated with increased serum phosphate in CKD, 25 and dietary counseling aimed at reducing the consumption of these foods lowered serum phosphate in hemodialysis patients. 28 Furthermore, increasing poverty was independently associated with higher serum phosphate levels and greater likelihood of hyperphosphatemia in a cohort of over 14,000 adults with largely preserved kidney function in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.…”

Hyperphosphatemia, which associates with adverse outcomes in CKD, is more common among blacks than whites for unclear reasons. Low socioeconomic status may explain this association because poverty both disproportionately affects racial and ethnic minorities and promotes excess intake of relatively inexpensive processed and fast foods enriched with highly absorbable phosphorus additives. We performed a cross-sectional analysis of race, socioeconomic status, and serum phosphate among 2879 participants in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort Study. Participants with the lowest incomes or who were unemployed had higher serum phosphate concentrations than participants with the highest incomes or who were employed (P Ͻ 0.001). Although we also observed differences in serum phosphate levels by race, income modified this relationship: Blacks had 0.11 to 0.13 mg/dl higher serum phosphate than whites in the highest income groups but there was no difference by race in the lowest income group. In addition, compared with whites with the highest income, both blacks and whites with the lowest incomes had more than twice the likelihood of hyperphosphatemia in multivariable-adjusted analysis. In conclusion, low socioeconomic status associates with higher serum phosphate concentrations irrespective of race. Given the association between higher levels of serum phosphate and cardiovascular disease, further studies will need to determine whether excess serum phosphate may explain disparities in kidney disease outcomes among minority populations and the poor.

The Prevalence and Nutritional Implications of Fast Food Consumption Among Patients Receiving Hemodialysis

Abstract: Background-Fast food consumption has increased dramatically in the general population over the last 25 years. However, little is known about the prevalence and nutritional implications of fast food consumption among hemodialysis patients.
