The joint impact on being overweight of self reported behaviours of eating quickly and eating until full: cross sectional survey

摘要

We carried out a cross sectional study of 4140 adults (1496 men, 2644 women) aged 30 to 69 in two Japanese communities who participated in surveys on cardiovascular risk from 2003 to 2006. Overall, 3650 (88.2%) participants responded to self administered questionnaires pn diet history and 489 (12%) refused. Overweight and body mass index were similar between the two groups. After exclusions, data on 3287 participants (1122 men, 2165 women) were used for the analyses.
