Abstract


Skipping breakfast can be potentially harmful because
breakfast consumption is considered one of the important
health-related behaviors that benefit physical and mental
health. As the rate of depression has increased recently, we
investigated the association between the frequency of
eating breakfast and depression in adults. We obtained the
data from the 2013 Korean Community Health Survey; a
total of 207,710 survey participants aged 20 years or over
were studied. Participants were categorized into three
groups by the frequency of breakfast consumption as
follows: “seldom,” “sometimes,” and “always.” We performed
a multiple logistic regression to investigate the association
between breakfast consumption and depressive mood.
Subgroup analyses were conducted by stratifying
socioeconomic variables controlling for variables known to
be associated with depressive symptoms. Participants who
had breakfast seldom or sometimes had higher depressive
symptoms than those who always ate breakfast (“seldom”:
OR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.36–1.52; “sometimes”: OR = 1.32,
95% CI 1.23–1.40). Subgroup analyses showed that this
association was more marked in those who were 80 years
or older, those who had low household income, or those
with elementary school education level or less. The result of
this study suggests that lack of breakfast consumption is
associated with depression among adults with different
socioeconomic factors.
