Abstract

Background: The consumption of carbonated soft drinks has risen substantially and has been associated with weight gain, chronic disease, and oral health issues. This study seeks to examine the relationship between carbonated soft drink consumption, health behaviours and mental health among Malaysian adolescents.

Methods: The 2022 Adolescent Health Survey (AHS) 2022 was a nationwide study involving Malaysian students aged 13 to 17 years old. It used a multistage stratified cluster sampling method to ensure a representative sample. Data collection was performed via a validated self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive and multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the prevalence and factors associated with the consumption of carbonated soft drinks.

Results: The prevalence of carbonated soft drink consumption at least once daily in the past 30 days was 32.4% (95% CI: 30.93, 33.87). The results revealed that the consumption of carbonated soft drinks was highest among males and young adolescents. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that health-related behaviours associated with high soft drink consumption included consuming fast food at least three days per week, drinking alcohol, drinking fewer than six glasses of plain water, and being physically inactive. In addition, a greater intake of carbonated soft drinks was positively associated with depression and suicide attempts.

Conclusion: This study provides compelling evidence that the consumption of carbonated soft drinks was associated with health-related behaviours and poor mental health among Malaysian adolescents.

马来西亚青少年碳酸软饮料消费与健康行为和心理健康的关系:2022年青少年健康调查(AHS)的结果。
背景:碳酸软饮料的消费量大幅上升,并与体重增加、慢性疾病和口腔健康问题有关。本研究旨在探讨马来西亚青少年碳酸软饮料消费、健康行为和心理健康之间的关系。方法:2022年青少年健康调查(AHS) 2022是一项涉及13至17岁马来西亚学生的全国性研究。采用多阶段分层整群抽样方法,确保样本具有代表性。通过有效的自我管理问卷收集数据。使用描述性和多变量逻辑回归来确定碳酸软饮料消费的流行程度和相关因素。结果:在过去30天内每天至少饮用一次碳酸软饮料的患病率为32.4% (95% CI: 30.93, 33.87)。结果显示,碳酸软饮料的消费量在男性和青少年中最高。多变量logistic回归分析表明,与高软饮料消费相关的健康相关行为包括每周至少三天吃快餐、饮酒、饮用少于六杯白开水以及不运动。此外,大量摄入碳酸软饮料与抑郁和自杀企图呈正相关。结论:这项研究提供了令人信服的证据,证明饮用碳酸软饮料与马来西亚青少年的健康相关行为和心理健康状况不佳有关。
