The Effects Of Intuitive Eating On The Body Composition And Some Biochemical Parameters
Abstract
Purpose:This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of intuitive eating behavior on body composition and some biochemical parameters.
Patients and Methods:This research was carried out at Prof. Dr. Türkan Saylan Medical Center between June 2018 and September 2018 with 172 clients. Anthropometric measurements of individuals, body mass index (BMI), waist hip ratio (CSO), fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, ferritin, Vitamin D, TSH, some biochemical parameter values such as, intuitive eating Scale-2 (IES-2) scores, beck depression inventory scores were calculated.The data were assesed using the descriptive statistics, one way varianca and correlation analysis.
Results:The mean age of the participants was 38.56. The body mass index average of the participants was 28.74. Participants were 0.6% weak, 15.1% normal weight, 51.2% overweight, 24.4% obese, 8.1% moderate obese and 0.6% morbid obese. Significant positive correlations were found between the scores of the participants reliance on internal hunger and satiety cues, and intuitive eating total and eating for physical rather than emotional reasons and eating scores (r=0.82 ve r=0.43 p<0.01). When the relationship between intuitive eating total scores and depression scale scores was evaluated, a statistically significant negative relation was found (r=-0.15, p<0.05). There was no statistically significant correlation between the scores of the participants on the intuitive eating scale and the triglyceride, LDL-K, HDL-K, TSH, ferritin and vitamin D from the biochemical parameters (p> 0.05). Statistically significant negative relationships were found between the total cholestrol values of the participants and intuitive eating total, eating for physical rather than emotional reasons and eating, reliance on internal hunger and satiety cues (r=-0.17; r=-0.16 ve r=-0.15; p<0.05).
Conclusion:Intuitive eating intervention may be a more promising and realistic alternative to traditional weight loss treatments to prevent obesity.
