Research Abstract |
We conducted a questionnaire survey to investigate the regional differences on such as lifestyle and eating habits between one area with high prevalenceof childhood overweight (the northern part of Iwate) and another area where the prevalence is close to the national average (a control area). According to a survey of fourth-grade children, children in the northern part of Iwate, comparing with those in a control area,tended to commute to school by bus or car, to study for a short time, to have few counselors, to leave some food in school lunch, and to have few snacks and low intake of vegetables. By a survey of children’s parents, the parents in the northern part of Iwate, comparing to those in a control area tended to not pay attention to adequate nutrition, and also not think parents themselves were healthy.
