The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the feasibility of using digital pictures to assess individuals' nutrient intakes from school lunch. The subjects for the study were 29 male students and 40 female students from two classes in a middle school located in Daejeon Metropolitan City, Korea. The school lunch service was self-operated and the students were allowed to portion the foods by themselves. The teacher in charge of each class took digital pictures of every student's lunch plate that was tagged with an i.d. number, before and after eating for two consecutive days. The researchers estimated the amount of food, which an individual actually consumed by comparing pre- and post-pictures of their plate with reference food pictures for better visual estimation of the food amounts. Individual energy and nutrient intakes were calculated using CAN-Pro (ver 3.0) using the food intake data visually estimated from the digital pictures and school lunch recipes. The teachers in charge reported that about 10~15 additional minutes were needed to take the pictures used for the study and this additional time did not place much burden on the service process during the lunch period. The results showed that the students' actual energy and nutrient intakes from the same school lunch menus were quite varied as the serving portions were not regulated and left-overs were not prohibited. This pilot study suggests that examination of individual nutrient intake using digital picture is a feasible method in the context of school lunch service.

농촌지역 국민학교 급식아동의 성장발달과 식생활 습관을 알아보기 위하여 경상북도 농촌지역 국민학교 중 급식 학교 6학년 아동 636명(남자 312 명, 여자 324명)과, 이들 학교 인근의 비급식학교 6학년 아동 628명(남자 306명, 여자 322명)을 대상으로 학생건강기록부에 기재된 신장, 체중 측정치를 1학년에서 6학년까지 6년간의 연속적인 자료를 조사하고, 이들의 전반적인 식생활 습관을 1992년 2월 1일부터 2월 15일까지 설문지로 조사하여 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 남자의 신장은 6년간 급식군이 27.8cm, 비급식군 27.1cm자랐고, 여자신장은 각각 29.9cm, 28.4cm가 자라서 급식아동이 약간 더 성장하였다. 남자체중은 급식군 15.7kg, 비급식군 14.8kg이 증가한 반면, 여자는 16.9kg 및 17.2kg이 성장해 남자는 급식아동이, 여자는 비급식아동이 더 성장했다. 1학년때는 percentile별 신장 체중의 분포가 표준정규분포 곡선형태에 가까우면서 급식군과 비급식군이 서로 비슷하였으나 6학년때는 50percentile선을 중심으로 75percentile이상에 급식아동의 분포가 더 많았다. 6학년때 체력은 남자의 경우 급식아동이 멀리뛰기, 던지기, 턱걸이, 윗몸일으키기에서 비급식아동보다 우세하였으며, 여자는 멀리뛰기 한 종목에서만 유의한 차이를 보였고 (P<0.05), 체력급수에서도 우수한 특급의 분포가 급식군에서 더 많았다. 아침식사를 매일 먹는 아동이 급식군 67.6%, 비급식군 57.8%였고, 아침을 안먹는 이유로 급식군은 습관이 돼서 (50.7%), 비급식군은 밥맛이 없어서 (58.9%)라고 답하였으며, 급식아동에서 대체적으로 싱겁게 먹는 경향이 많았다. 간식빈도는 무 군 모두 70% 정도의 아동이 하루에 1회이상 간식을 하고 있었으며, 간식장소는 급식군은 집에서 (45.2%), 비급식군은 귀가 도중 가게나 길거리에 (48.4%)한다고 답하였다. 가정에서 식사할 때 음식을 골고루 먹는 아동이 급식군에서 더 많았고 식사시 조용히 자리에 앉아서 음식을 삼킨후 이야기하며 먹는 아동이 급식군에서 더 많았는 반면, T.V를 보면서 먹는 아동은 비급식군보다 적었다. 식사전에 항상 손을 씻는 아동이 급식군은 84.0%, 비급식군 63.6%로 급식군에서 유의하게 높았고, 식사후 이닦기를 항상 하는 아동은 급식군 여자에서 많아 유의한 관련성을 보였다. 영양교육 실태에 있어서도 영양교육을 '받았다'라고 답한 아동이 급식군 78.0%, 비급식군 57.5%였다. 이상의 결과로 볼때 급식아동이 비급식아동 보다 성장발육 속도가 더 빨랐고, 체력도 더 좋다고 할 수 있으며, 식습관 및 위생습관도 양호한 것으로 나타나 국민학교 특히 농촌지역부터 학교급식을 빠른 시일내에 확대 실시토록 해야 할것이며, 교육급식으로서의 역할을 다할 수 있도록 영양 및 식생활개선교육도 강화해야 할 것이다.

This study was performed to investigate the food behaviors of college students through a food record method. In this study, one hundred and sixty seven students of Dankook university were chosen(male:77, female:90). We collected data about nutrients intake and food behaviors. Food behaviors included a frequency of both meal and snack, meal time, eating place, person with whom they ate, reason for eating, feeling after eating, and activities during mealtime. The results of the study were summarized as follows. Energy intake per day of male and female were 2201kcal and 1781kcal, respectively. Expect for the protein, vitamin C and phosphate, nutrients were not satisfied with the RDA, especially the intake of vitamin A, Vitamin B2, and calcium was very low. Average eating frequency per day was 5.1 and meal eating frequency per day was 2.6. In addition, male ate more frequently than female did. The interval between breakfast and lunch was 295 minutes, and between lunch and dinner was 373 minutes. The places where they ate the meal and snack were mostly school and restaurant at lunch and dinner, and there was not a significant different between weekday and weekend. On weekdays, the 40~50% of subjects had a breakfast with family, and most students had a lunch or dinner with friends. During weekend, although the percentage of students who had a lunch and dinner with family were increased, a lot of students had a lunch and dinner with friends or alone. In case of reason for meal and snack, the 60~70% of subjects answered that they ate the meal for hunger, and there was not different between weekday and weekend. 60~70% of subjects felt that they eat proper, but the percentage of overeat was increased for dinner. Most students were talking with others while they had a lunch. About 20% of subjects ate only food at both breakfast and dinner and 30% of subjects were watching TV. In correlation between nutrients intake and food behaviors, the higher frequency of eating, the higher carbohydrate intake in male. In case of female, protein intake and dinner time showed the negative correlation, and protein intake and mean intervals of eating had a positive correlation. In case of male, reason for eating affected the nutrient intake, but eating place, after feeling and activity for eating had no relation with nutrients intake. But in case of female, these factors affected nutrient intake. Therefore, food behaviors had an effect on nutrients intake, and the type of effect was different between male and female.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine preventive effects of water drinking on postprandial fall of blood pressure in the elderly. Method: Participants were 25 elders who had experienced postprandial fall of systolic blood pressure of more than 15mmHg in a previous study. Within subject repeated measures design using random order allocation was used to control extraneous variables among participants. During the experiment, each participant had to drink 400mL water before lunch, whereas when in the control, they only had their lunch. Blood pressure and heart rate were measured for both times before lunch and at 15 minutes intervals up to 90 minutes after lunch. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, repeated measures of ANOVA, paired t-test and Bonferroni adjustment as Post-hoc analysis. Results: Water drinking before lunch elicited significant pressor effects by increasing systolic and diastolic pressure $13.9{\pm}4.7/5.2{\pm}2.2mmHg$ compared blood pressure during the control p<.005, p<.022. Heart rate, however, did not change significantly at either time. Conclusion: Drinking water before meal is recommended for elders who experience postprandial hypotension. However, the appropriate volume of water to prevent postprandial fall in blood pressure should be further studied.

The satisfaction of elementary school children and their parents with the school lunch program by foodservice system was assessed by questionnaire. 787 (347 male, 417 female) 5th grade elementary school children and 761 parents participated. Foodservice systems of the schools were of 4 types : central/commissary ; satellite /commissary ; conventional/contracted ; and delivery/contracted. The most joyful mealtime for children was identified as lunch because of eating with friends. Satiety and leftovers after lunch varied according to the foodservice system. For example , there was less satiety in the contracted system and more leftovers in the delivery system than in the others, Foods tasted better in the commissary system than in the contracted one. The contacted system , especially the delivery/contracted system, was poor for keeping rice and soup hot. The children's food habits such as eating a greater variety of foods and good table manner were improved through the school munch program. Most parents well understood the main purpose of the school lunch program to be a source of education on nutrition and table manner, as well as a way in which to provide the same meals to all students and save the time & work needed to prepare home lunches. Parents claimed that hygiene, taste, good nutrition and food amount should be improved. This was especially true for hygiene in the commissary system and taste in the contracted system. Furthermore, they stressed that better taste and hygiene are the most important criteria for good school foodservice systems. In conclusion, parents wanted the school lunch program should be selected with consideration of children's preference such as by periodical food preference tests. A nutrition education program should also be provided to correct bad food habits of childrens.
