Abstract

This paper reports about relationships between stress and dietary life of the college students. From the survey results, 35.6% of the male students and 9.8% of the female students were overweight. Specially, the male students is in a critical situation than the females. Moreover, 66% of the students were very stressed out and it seemed to be continued for about 3days. The female students showed increase in the size of their meal when they were stressed, however the male students did not show difference on their meal. Most of the male students preferred to have alcohol & beverage when they are under lots of stress, and many females had sweets. The students in age 19~21 choose sweets, in 22~24 choose alcohol & beverage, and ages over 25 preferred spicy soup & stew. The students drunk alcohol & beverage for stress releasing never considering their monthly spending money. Many of the students said they worry about body weight after eating to get rid of stress, but they thought it is good for free from stress. The stress comes from worrying about their the past and the future life, or job & work. They release themselves from the stress listening to the music, sleeping or drinking alcohols. As a result, we need to provide them a nutrition education program that guide the students to improve their dietary life style.
