Body fatness in active individuals reporting low lipid and alcohol intake.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:To evaluate body fatness in subjects complying with common public health guidelines for lipid and alcohol intake as well as physical activity participation. SUBJECTS:A sample of 358 male subjects who participated in phase 1 of the Quebec Family Study. DESIGN:The association between adiposity, lipid and alcohol intake and physical activity participation was analyzed in the overall sample. A comparison of body fatness in individuals adhering or not to public health recommendations was also performed. RESULTS:Significant positive correlations were observed between the percentage of dietary energy as lipid and adiposity indicators. Accordingly, subjects classified as low-fat consumers displayed significantly lower levels of fat mass and subcutaneous adiposity compared to high-fat consumers. When subjects reporting low lipid and alcohol intake and regular participation in vigorous physical activities were compared to those exhibiting opposite behaviors, the between-group difference in subcutaneous adiposity was doubled and this was essentially explained by an increase in the difference for truncal subcutaneous adiposity. CONCLUSION:These results indicate that the adherence to a lifestyle characterized by high-fat and alcohol intake as well as sedentariness promotes fat gain, particularly in the trunk area.
