“…A population cohort in Korean adults suggested that dietary aspects, such as dietary diversity, was associated with the risk of MetS [ 43 ]. Diet and MetS association also supported by a cross-sectional study reported low fruit and vegetable intakes and high alcohol consumption as dietary factors that contribute to MetS risk, alongside high BMI and a sedentary lifestyle [ 40 ]. The findings of the present study are, in general, aligned with previous findings and suggested theories.…”

“…Previous studies have consistently reported higher BMI as predictor for MetS [ 37 – 39 ]. Other variables that have been reported in addition to BMI include sedentary lifestyle [ 40 , 41 ], waist-to-hip ratio [ 42 ], older age, being female, and lower education level [ 39 ]. A population cohort in Korean adults suggested that dietary aspects, such as dietary diversity, was associated with the risk of MetS [ 43 ].…”

“…While overweight-obesity and sedentary lifestyle were consistently reported in another population study, this study’s findings in relation to carbohydrate and fat intake as predictors of the future risk of MetS have not been widely reported in other studies. Different dietary patterns and types of carbohydrate and fat consumed in various populations allow diverse outcomes in the risk of MetS [ 40 ].…”

Background Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), notably cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus, are largely driven by metabolic syndrome (MetS), a cluster of critical risk factors. Despite extensive research, the progression of MetS, especially in Indonesia, has received limited attention. This research tracks adult MetS risk dynamics in a populous Bogor District cohort, providing crucial insights into its evolving nature. Methods This prospective open cohort study analysed secondary data from the Special Research - Cohort Study of Non-Communicable Diseases by the Ministry of Health, Republic of Indonesia from 2011 to 2018. The final sample was 1,376 Indonesian adult participants, all residents of Bogor District. MetS outcome, dietary assessment, physical activity, and biomarkers were analysed every two consecutive years. Results The risk of overweight and obese participants developing MetS was 2.4 and 4.4 times higher, respectively (95% CI: 1.176–3.320 and 3.345–5.740) than those with body mass index (BMI) in the normal range. Participants who reported less intentional physical exercise had a MetS risk 1.5 times higher (95% CI: 1.034–2.109) than those with more intentional physical exercise. The role of diet is also significant, evidenced by a 30% reduction in MetS risk for people with fat intakes in the 2nd quartile compared to the 1st quartile (95% CI: 0.505–0.972). Meanwhile, a carbohydrate intake in the 2nd quartile increased the risk of MetS 1.5 times (95% CI: 1.063–2.241) in comparison with the 1st quartile. Conclusions Notably, participants with underweight BMI exhibited the highest cumulative survival of MetS, while those with obese BMI recorded the lowest cumulative survival. There is an urgent need for strategic interventions to enhance the existing early detection and NCD monitoring program. This involves a targeted focus on promoting a community-based healthy lifestyle in the Bogor District. The study emphasizes the importance of tailored public health measures to address specific risk factors identified in the local context, aiming to mitigate the prevalence and impact of MetS in the population.

“…Hypertension is a major public health problem and the leading cause of cardiovascular diseases, contributing to 9.4 million deaths and 1.39 billion cases annually 1 , 2 . These could be associated with the rise in obesity 3 and other treatment-related factors 4 . Evidence has also shown that the risk of hypertension rises by 3–7 times among those who are overnourished 5 , 6 , and more than 65% of hypertension is attributable to having excess weight 7 , 8 .…”

Overnutrition is a recognized risk factor for hypertension, but evidence is lacking among hypertensive patients for tailored dietary interventions. This study assessed dietary factors in 331 hypertensive patients in southwest Ethiopia. The data was collected through a questionnaire and analyzed using factor analysis. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated, and a BMI above 25 kg m−2 was considered overnutrition. An ordinal logistic regression model was used to model the data and control confounders. Adjusted odds ratio and p-values were reported. Among the 331 respondents, consumption of cereals and grains (57.0%); roots and tubers (58.5); and legumes (50.0%), while 28.6% drink alcohol, was common. About 29.0% (24.1–34.2) had overnutrition (22%, 17.6–26.6%, overweight and 7.0%, 4.5–10.3%, obesity). While the predicted odds of overnutrition were higher among males (AOR = 2.85; 1.35–6.02), married (AOR = 1.47; 0.69–3.12), illiterates (AOR = 2.09; 1.18–3.72), advanced age (AOR = 1.65; 0.61–4.61), government employees (AOR = 6.83; 1.19–39.2), and urban dwellers (AOR = 4.06; 1.76–9.36), infrequent vegetable consumption (AOR = 1.47; 0.72–2.96) and lower and higher terciles of cereals and animal-source food consumption (AOR = 1.56; 0.72–3.34). Overnutrition among hypertensive patients was significantly high and associated with unhealthy dietary consumption, educational status, residence, and occupation, emphasizing the need for targeted dietary counseling.
