ABSTRACT

The study evaluated the dietary habits, physical activity, and family history of young people in southeastern Mexico, considering the implications for their health during the COVID-19 quarantine. The study was a cross-sectional study with a simple random sample. A total of 153 young between 15 and 35 years of age from southeastern Mexico were surveyed and responded to an online questionnaire, in which information was obtained on the participants’ anthropometric measurements, general health status (including symptoms of depression), dietary patterns, physical activity levels, and family medical history concerning chronic diseases. The data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics, and the odds ratio was used for multivariate analysis adjusted by age, sex, and body mass index (BMI). Obesity (41.9%) and depressive symptoms (24.2%) were the most frequent health conditions in the participants. Bottled soft drinks during the meal were highly consumed by 10.5%. Physical activity was not performed by 34.36% of the respondents. High BMI and consumption of undesirable foods (NRF) during dinner and lunch increased the risk of obesity up to 8, 2.4, and 2.7 times, respectively. Obesity (2.3) and NRF consumption during dinner (7.6) and snacks (2.6) increase the risk of depression. In conclusion, dietary habits had higher implications on young people’s health in southeastern Mexico during the COVID-19 quarantine. Therefore, the results significantly contribute to our understanding of the broader health repercussions of the pandemic and the necessary measures to address them.
