Abstract
Objectives To investigate the relationship between markers of metabolic health and lifestyle in adults from Matsumoto, Japan. Methods Blood tests and lifestyle questionnaires were administered to 671 subjects(mean age, 54.8 years)in Matsumoto, Japan. The questionnaire included questions on exercise, weight gain, diet, and other lifestyle habits, such as drinking and smoking. Associations between blood test values and lifestyle were assessed using the point-biserial correlation coefficient. Results The overall mean values for fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c, and uric acid were 100.1 mg/dL, 5.64%, and 5.44 mg╱dL, respectively. Fasting insulin was significantly correlated with“weight gain”(r=0.396)and“fast eating”(r=.219). Uric acid was significantly correlated with“weight gain”(r=0.242)“, frequency of drinking”(r=0.203), and“alcohol consumption per day”(r=0.222). Alanine aminotransferase(ALT)levels were significantly correlated with“weight gain”(r=0.350). Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase(γ-GTP)levels were significantly correlated with“weight gain”(r=0.354)“, frequency of drinking”(r=0.298), and“alcohol consumption per day”(r=0.249). Conclusions These results suggest that weight control, reducing alcohol intake, slow eating, and other lifestyle factors are associated with health maintenance.
