fiber intake play a role in etiology in obesity.
Objective: This study was to examine the associations between dietary
saturated fat intake, fiber intake and components of metabolic syndrome among
obese adolescents.
Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted to 57 obese students aged
13-15 years old of SMP Nasima and SMP Kesatrian 2 Semarang, based on body mass
index for ages. Subjects of this study were collected consecutively. Data were
collected through waist circumference and blood pressure measurements, fasting
biochemical serum analysis and dietary intake assessment. Rank Spearman and Pearson correlation test
was used to examine the associations between of dietary saturated fat and fiber
intake to components of metabolic syndrome.
Results: There were 46 subjects (80,7 %) had metabolic syndrome and 11
subjects (19,3 %) had the pre-metabolic syndrome. There was no association
between dietary saturated fat intake and waist circumference, HDL cholesterol,
triglyceride, fasting blood glucose levels and blood pressure. Fiber intake was
negatively associated with blood triglyceride levels (r = -0.340; p = 0.01).
Conclusion: There was no association between dietary saturated fat intake
and components of metabolic syndrome. There was an association between dietary
fiber intake with blood triglyceride levels. Dietary fiber intake has an
important role in lipid metabolism.
