| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to find out effective and concrete procedures for Food and Nutrition Education in Japan for the next-generation of pre-and school-age children from The associated factors associated with dental caries experience from this analysis were "not eating breakfast"(OR : 2.05), "eating snacks before going to bed"(OR : 1.46), "having gingivitis"(OR : 0.80), and "detection of S. mutans"(OR : 1.62), and "lactobacilli"(OR : 1.63).
The study revealed that 22.3% of the children had risk factors for lifestyle-related diseases. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that there was a significant association between the children with risk factors for lifestyle-related diseases, non-breakfast eaters(OR : 2.05), not like to exercise,(OR : 2.07), and high levels MS in saliva(OR : 1.75).
The associated factors with low food acceptance response were non-breakfast eaters(OR : 3.235), knowledge of health behavior(OR : 1.55-1.98), secretion rate saliva(OR : 1.74), malocclusion(OR : 1.51).
This study demonstrated that count of MS in saliva is possible biomarkers for sugar and fat intake of school children. Moreover, not only MS level in saliva, but also eating habits can be utilized for screening children who have high risk of caries. We therefore believe that it is important for Japanese school children nowadays to have education in food and nutrition in the school order to prevent lifestyle-related diseases and dental caries.
