Aim. Changes in lifestyle such as dietary and physical activity may improve dyslipidemia; however, it is still unclear. Thus the aim of this study was to determine the association among lifestyle status and dyslipidemia in Shiraz adults.
Methods: One hundred forty four male (N.=61; mean +/- SD: 38.8 +/- 14.2 years old) and female (N.=83; mean +/- SD: 44.9 +/- 16.5 years old) patients participated in this study. Each subject's lifestyle status was assessed by a self-administered questionnaire based on Breslow's lifestyle index and a composite dietary behavior score obtained from self-reported responses to a 24-item food-frequency.
Results. The results demonstrated a negative relationship between Breslow's lifestyle index and physical activity levels with dyslipidernia (P<0.05). On the other hand, the results showed that there is a positive relationship between less healthy foods with total cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL-c and a positive relationship between healthy foods and HDL-c levels. General linear regression demonstrated that food consumption pattern was independently associated with blood lipid profile in male female.
Conclusion. In conclusion, unhealthy lifestyle, especially having bad food consumption pattern may cause dyslipidemia.
