Abstract
Background
Osteoporosis, a common disease among postmenopausal women has been known to be influenced by the diet. The purpose of this study was to compare the intake of nutrients and food of Korean postmenopausal women with and without osteoporosis.
Methods
Seventy-two cases with osteoporosis and 72 age-matched controls without osteoporosis were recruited from 10 hospitals around Seoul during April 1 through September 31, 2009. Osteoporosis was determined following the ISCD guideline. Data for the intake of foods and nutrients were obtained by food frequency questionnaire and was analyzed by Can-pro 3.0. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS. Result: Age (59.8 vs. 58.0 years old) and age of menopause (51.2 vs. 53.1 years old) were not significantly different between cases and control, but height, weight, and body mass index were significantly greater in controls than cases, and Hormone replacement therapy was significantly more frequent in controls. Controls consumed significantly more energy and most of nutrients, such as protein, plant protein, animal protein, plant fat, carbohydrate, fiber, plant calcium, animal calcium, phosphorous, plant iron, animal iron, sodium, potassium, zinc, vitamin A, carotene, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, niacin, vitamin C, folate, vitamin E, cholesterol, total fatty acids, saturated fatty acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and n-3 fatty acids. In addition, consumption of fish was significantly greater in controls than cases.
Conclusion
The results suggested that adequate intake of food and nutrients may prevent osteoporosis after menopause. [Korean Journal of Bone Metabolism, 16(2): 103-110, 2009]
