Title

Nutritional status and its associated factors among the rural Garo population in Bangladesh.

Abstract

To achieve good health, high quality of life, and increased national productivity, adequate nutrition is necessary. Ethnic people typically follow a variety of lifestyles and cultural customs. They are therefore significant fields of research. Based on the international body mass index (BMI) cutoff values for adults by age and sex, a cross-sectional study was done to evaluate the nutritional status of the Garo people. Simple random sampling was used to choose the study participants from Modhupur Upazila in Tanthe gail District of Dhaka, Bangladesh. A face-to-face interview was conducted in order to collect data, and a community leader's verbal consent was obtained before the interview. For the Asian population, nutritional status was assessed using the BMI cutoff value. Data on a total of 289 adults (36% were male and 64% were females) aged 18-70 years was included the analysis. In general, 14.9% of people were underweight, 35.3% were normal weight, 33.2% were overweight, and 16.6% were obese. A connection between nutritional status, age group, and occupation was shown to be statistically significant. It is possible to implement an effective nutrition education program.
