Effects of takeout food consumption on overweight and obesity among college students in Jiangxi Province

  Objective  To investigate the correlation between takeout food consumption and overweight and obesity among college students in Jiangxi Province, and to provide a scientific basis for overweight and obesity prevention and control among college students and standardizing and managing the present situation of takeout food.  Methods  From May to June 2018, 2610 college students were randomly selected from a university in Shangrao, Jiangxi Province. The Chi-square and binary Logistic regression were used to analyze the influences of frequency and type of takeout food consumption on overweight and obesity in college students.  Results  The prevalence of overweight and obesity among male students (7.7%) was significantly higher than that among female students (4.1%) (χ2=12.02, P < 0.01), and the prevalence of overweight and obesity among college students was statistically significant (χ2=12.54, P < 0.01). The prevalence of overweight and obesity (8.8%) among college students from relatively wealthy families was higher than that of other groups. College students who ordered takeout and fast food were 1.8 times more overweight and 1.59 times more obese.  Conclusion  Regular consumption of takeout food and the type of takeout food, such as "Fast Food Bento", increased the risk of overweight and obesity. Improved healthy takeout food awareness and appropriate practices should be strengthened.
