Overview
Objective:
The main aim of the present study was to evaluate trends in six eating behaviours of Czech adolescents in relation to their body weight between 2002–2014. The partial aim was to monitor the differences in eating behaviours between adolescents with normal body weight and obesity in 2002, 2006, 2010 and 2014.
Methods:
The data was obtained from the Czech HBSC (Health Behaviour in School-aged Children) survey in 2002, 2006, 2010 and 2014. Body weight category was determined by body mass index (BMI) and eating behaviours were obtained from a questionnaire filled by 11-, 13- and 15-year-old adolescents. Logistic regression (Enter method) (odds ratio – OR and 95% confidence interval – CI) was used to analyse changes in eating behaviours and the differences between body weight categories were calculated by chi-square test.
Results:
From 2002 to 2014, the data showed a significant decrease in consumption of soft drinks (normal body weight OR: 0.47; CI = 0.42–0.52; overweight OR: 0.47; CI = 0.36–0.63, and obesity OR: 0.47; CI = 0.29–0.75). In addition, the changes in trends were seen in daily consumption of sweets (OR: 0.81; CI = 0.74–0.90), fruit (OR: 0.81; CI = 0.74–0.88) and breakfast on weekdays (OR: 1.28; CI = 1.17–1.39), however, significant change was only in adolescents with normal body weight. There was no change in consumption of vegetable or breakfast on weekends. Lower prevalence was reported in consumption of sweets (all survey years), soft drinks (only in 2006) and breakfast on weekdays/weekends (only in 2006) in obese adolescents.
Conclusions:
Monitoring dietary trends in Czech adolescents in relation to body weight category is important for evaluation of current projects and development of new programmes targeted to decrease differences between body weight categories in adolescents.
