Impact of Nutrition Education on Dietary Inflammatory Index and Anthropometric Measurements in Individuals Who Regularly Engage in Exercise
Abstract
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effects of nutrition education on Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and anthropometric measurements in individuals who engage in regular exercise.
Methods: This study, involving individuals who engaged in regular exercise, was conducted at a sports center between September and November 2024. In this study, one hundred participants received nutrition education, pre-test anthropometric measurements were made on the same day, and 24-hour food consumption records were taken. Post-test anthropometric measurements were taken 30 days after the initial measurement, 24-hour food consumption records were collected, and food consumption was evaluated using Bebis software, while DII was calculated.
Results: One month after nutrition education, it was shown that the levels of Vitamin A (U=908; p<.05) and Vitamin E (t=2.503; p<.05) intake in males had increased significantly compared to females. Statistically significant decreases were observed in the hip circumference (p=.030), triceps (p=.008), suprailiac (p=.010), chest (p=.013), and femur (p<.001) skinfold thickness measurements when comparing pre- and post-training values. There was no statistically significant difference between the pretest and posttest total DII scores of the participants (p>.05).
Conclusion: The findings indicate a positive impact of nutrition education on anthropometric measurements; however, no significant effect was observed regarding DII scores.
