| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of the present study was to investigate the nutritional problems of underweight women in their 20s and 30s with weight loss.
Lymphocyte counts and prealbumin as an indicator of nutritional status were lower in the underweight group. This finding suggested that underweight women were at risk for nutritional problems. However, in this study, prealbumin showed no clear association with weight loss. Lymphocyte counts were higher in underweight women with weight loss. These results were different from a hypothesis. General Malaise was lower in underweight women with weight gain. It was expected that underweight women with weight gain felt good body condition.
