Abstract
OBJECTIVE
The double burden of malnutrition is an emerging public health concern nowadays which a correlation with obesity. This study aimed to examine the relationship between resting metabolic rate (RMR) and dietary intake of zinc, vitamin C, and riboflavin in overweight and obese women.
RESULTS
The RMR/FFM showed a significant association with riboflavin (β = 1.59; 95% CI 1.04-23.26, P = 0.04) and zinc (β = 0.78; 95% CI 1.04-4.61, P = 0.03) in the crude model. Moreover, differences in vitamin C and RMR/FFM was marginal significant (β = 0.75; 95% CI 0.95-4.77, P = 0.06). After adjusting for confounders the riboflavin association change to marginal significance (β = 1.52; 95% CI 0.91-23.04, P = 0.06). After controlling for potential confounders, the associations change between zinc and RMR/FFM (β = 0.66; 95% CI 0.78-4.86, P = 0.15) and between RMR/FFM and vitamin C (β = 0.48; 95% CI 0.66-3.96, P = 0.28). Our study showed a significant association between dietary intake of zinc, riboflavin, and vitamin C and change in RMR/FFM in overweight and obese women.
