1 Key Findings of the Recent Malaysian Adult Nutrition Survey (MANS) 2014 Presenter : Mohamad Hasnan Bin Ahmad Nutritionist Institute For Public Health Ministry of Health Jalan Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur 1

Introduction 1 st Malaysian Adult Nutrition Survey (MANS) was carried out in 2003.

2 Introduction 1 st Malaysian Adult Nutrition Survey (MANS) was carried out in It was conducted as a nationwide survey, covering Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah & Sarawak. 2

3 Introduction The report was published in 8 volumes 3

4 Introduction 2 nd MANS was proposed as dietary patterns of Malaysian population may differ from MANS 2003 due to the urbanization and nutrition transition in the recent years. Furthermore, current information on dietary intake is urgently needed to update food and nutrition policies. In 2014, Institute for Public Health conducted the second MANS using the National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) platform. 4

5 Objectives General objectives To determine the socio-demography in relation to food security status, meal pattern, food intake by food group, food label reading & understanding, dietary supplement intake, physical activity status, food consumption pattern, nutritional status and nutrient intake of Malaysian adults age years old. 5

6 Objectives Specific objectives 1. To determine food security status of Malaysian. 2. To determine meal pattern of the Malaysian adults. 3. To determine food intake by food group of the Malaysian adults. 4. To determine food label reading and understanding of Malaysian adults. 5. To determine dietary supplement intake of Malaysian adult 6. To assess physical activity status of Malaysian adults. 7. To determine food consumption pattern of Malaysian adult 8. To determine nutritional status of Malaysian adults. 9. To determine nutrient intake of Malaysian adults. 6

7 Methodology MANS was a nationwide cross-sectional study conducted in March until June Multistage stratified sampling design was used to select 4,044 representative sample of Malaysian adult population, aged 18 to 59 years old. Nutritionists and trained research assistants were recruited for data collection. 7

24 Discussion About quarter of Malaysian household exposed to risk of food insecurity. Most Malaysian adults took meal during dinner and the prevalence those who took meal after dinner also alarming. The intake of vegetables, legumes (legumes product) and milk (milk product) among Malaysian adults was insufficient as suggested by Malaysia Food Pyramid recommendation. 24

25 Discussion Half of Malaysian adults never read the food label or nutrition information panel when buy or received food. About 3 quarters of Malaysia adults had been taking any type of supplements (VMS and FS) within the past one year. Approximately 7.1 million Malaysian adults were physically inactive, which represented 36.9% of the adult population. 25

26 Discussion From the food consumption pattern, consumption of processed foods and condiments had increased rapidly as daily top ten food most consumed in Malaysian adults. About half of the Malaysian adult population found to having excess body weight (overweight and obese) Reported daily energy intake of Malaysian adults was about 1500kcal/day. As diets very considerably from day to day, the ability of a single 24HR to provide an accurate estimation of long term energy intake is limited (Ma Y. et al. 2009). Korean National Health & Nutrition Examination Survey reported high underreporting with 24HR especially among individual with BMI 25 and poor self-rated health (Kye S et al. 2014). 26

27 Conclusion In conclusion, this survey found the greatest concern should be placed on nutrition status of Malaysian population when in proportion, one in two adults in Malaysian was overweight or obese. High prevalence of physical inactivity, insufficient vegetables, legumes and milk intake, habit to take heavy meal after dinner, high prevalence of never read food label and high risk of household food insecurity also need many attentions. 27

28 Recommendation As half of Malaysian adults was categorised as overweight and obese, effective and holistic efforts from multi-sectorial agencies is urgently needed to intervene this problem. Regular nutrition surveys should be carried out to provide comprehensive information on trends in food and nutrient intake among Malaysian population. 28
