Since childhood obesity and Metabolic Syndrome in youth is increasing and crucial for predicting the development of other lifestyle related diseases in later life, it is useful to research if and how diet influences the presence of Metabolic Syndrome. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify differences in health outcomes for youth by comparing this with the different types of foods they consume. Secondly, possibly found effects will be controlled for by using socio-economic status of parents, physical activity and age. For this study, German data from the baseline study of KiGGs, conducted by the Robert Koch Institute between 2003-2006, will be used. date: 2018 date_type: published thesis_type: master degree_programme: POPST tutors_name: Vogt, T. keywords_local: Public health, nutrition, obesity, metabolic syndrome, youth language_iso: en titleorder: Role of dietary intake on the development of Metabolic Syndrome in youth: Germany, 2003-2006. dbi: 5bc876412812c imported_item: yes date_of_import: 2020-04-22 imported_from: http://scripties.frw.eldoc.ub.rug.nl/root/ma/PopSt/2018/jwvenema/ import_source_file: theses-frw-20200422132455-5bc876412812c.xml date_issued: 2018-01-01 description_company: Rijksuniversiteit Groningen citation: Venema, J.W.
