Abstract

Background: Eating habits formed during adolescence greatly influence the maintenance of health in adulthood. With the recent development of social media and easy access to the Internet, adolescents watch plenty of food videos, particularly Mukbang and Cookbnag(eating show)content. This media genre's impact on food choices has been covered in several studies; however, studies on unhealthy eating habits directly related to adolescents' exposure to eating shows are insufficient.

Methods: For this study, we used data from the 18^th Korea Youth Risk Behavior Survey conducted in 2022 and finalized 50,451 participants. The extent of exposure to eating show media over the course of a week, as well as the consumption of fast food, sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), and high caffeinated beverages within that week were measured through self-reporting questionnaires. We classified the participants into two groups based on their frequency of watching eating shows. A multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the association between eating show and unhealthy food consumption.

Results: For both males and females, eating show exposure was strongly associated with the consumption of fast food (male: OR:1.37, 95% CI:1.26-1.49; female: OR:1.46, 95% CI:1.36-1.57), SSB (male: OR:1.42, 95% CI:1.26-1.60; female: OR:1.51, 95% CI:1.35-1.70), and high caffeinated beverage (male: OR:1.30, 95% CI:1.23-1.37; female: OR:1.24, 95% CI:1.18-1.31). It was observed that both sexes were more likely to frequently eat unhealthy food than students who did not watch eating shows.

Conclusion: Among Korean adolescents, students exposed to eating shows, which primarily aim to entertain, were more likely to consume fast food, SSBs, and high caffeinated beverages. Therefore, this study's findings suggest that eating show could influence adolescents' food choices, highlighting the need for interest in emerging cultures and corresponding health policies.

韩国青少年观看饮食节目与摄入不健康食物之间的关系。

背景：青少年时期养成的饮食习惯在很大程度上影响着他们成年后的健康状况。随着近年来社交媒体的发展和互联网的普及，青少年观看大量的美食视频，尤其是 Mukbang 和 Cookbnag（饮食节目）内容。这种媒体类型对食物选择的影响已在多项研究中有所涉及，但与青少年接触饮食节目直接相关的不健康饮食习惯的研究还不够充分：在这项研究中，我们使用了 2022 年进行的第 18 次韩国青少年危险行为调查的数据，最终确定了 50451 名参与者。我们通过自我报告问卷调查了一周内接触饮食节目媒体的程度，以及一周内快餐、含糖饮料（SSB）和高咖啡因饮料的消费情况。根据观看饮食节目的频率，我们将参与者分为两组。我们进行了多元逻辑回归分析，以研究饮食节目与不健康食品消费之间的关联：结果：无论男性还是女性，观看饮食节目与快餐消费（男性：OR:1.37, 95% CI:1.26-1.49; 女性：OR:1.46, 95% CI:1.36-1.57）、SSB（男性：OR：1.42，95% CI：1.26-1.60；女性：OR：1.51，95% CI：1.35-1.70）和高咖啡因饮料（男性：OR：1.30，95% CI：1.23-1.37；女性：OR：1.24，95% CI：1.18-1.31）。据观察，与不观看饮食节目的学生相比，男女学生都更有可能经常吃不健康的食物：结论：在韩国青少年中，观看以娱乐为主要目的的饮食节目的学生更有可能食用快餐、固态饮料和高咖啡因饮料。因此，本研究的结果表明，饮食节目可能会影响青少年的饮食选择，这凸显了关注新兴文化和相应健康政策的必要性。

期刊介绍： Nutrition Journal publishes surveillance, epidemiologic, and intervention research that sheds light on i) influences (e.g., familial, environmental) on eating patterns; ii) associations between eating patterns and health, and iii) strategies to improve eating patterns among populations. The journal also welcomes manuscripts reporting on the psychometric properties (e.g., validity, reliability) and feasibility of methods (e.g., for assessing dietary intake) for human nutrition research. In addition, study protocols for controlled trials and cohort studies, with an emphasis on methods for assessing dietary exposures and outcomes as well as intervention components, will be considered. Manuscripts that consider eating patterns holistically, as opposed to solely reductionist approaches that focus on specific dietary components in isolation, are encouraged. Also encouraged are papers that take a holistic or systems perspective in attempting to understand possible compensatory and differential effects of nutrition interventions. The journal does not consider animal studies. In addition to the influence of eating patterns for human health, we also invite research providing insights into the environmental sustainability of dietary practices. Again, a holistic perspective is encouraged, for example, through the consideration of how eating patterns might maximize both human and planetary health.
