The study was taken up with the objective to assess the nutritional status of the children in relation to breakfast skipping in government and private schools of Bengaluru city, Karnataka. A total of school children aged 1-1 years were assessed for breakfast consumption pattern using questionnaire for the past one week. BMI for age percentiles were compared with the WHO (7) reference standards and classified according to WHO cut-offs. The breakfast skipping was found more in the children of compared to (7% vs. 7%). In comparison with two schools, the percentage of being underweight was found to be more in children (5.%) compared to children (6.%) irrespective of breakfast skipping frequency. The percentage of children being obese were found more in breakfast skippers who skips 1- times (16.7%) and -4 times (.1%) a week and were from private school. The study highlights the need of regular breakfast consumption during the transition from childhood to adolescence. Key words: School children, Nutritional status, Socio-economic status, Breakfast skipping, WHO standards. INTRODUCTION Children are the wealth of any nation as they constitute one of the important segments of the population. It is recorded that in India one fifth population comprises of children between 5-14 years, the age group covering primary and secondary school age 15. In India, approximately 1 per cent of the growing population comprises children in the age group of -14 years of whom 6.7 per cent currently reside in urban India. A significant and increasing number of these children belong to middle and high socio-economic groups 14. School going children go through remarkable physical changes of all kinds; their food intake becomes a critical aspect for the growth and development. Health of children is of great importance as rapid growth occurs during this period. Good nutrition is a basic requirement for good health and a living organism is a product of nutrition 9.

Studies in different countries have method for the current investigation. A total of school children (both gender) were selected from the two schools i.e., Government shown that in general, children s eating Higher Primary School (), patterns have changed over the years with the trends being eating more food away from home, consuming more snacks, drinking more sugar - sweetened beverages, along with a decline in breakfast consumption and less consumption of fruits 1. Bytarayanapura and Oriental English High School (), Vidyaranyapura, Bengaluru city (1 each from two schools). The data was collected with the help of pre-designed and pre-tested interview schedule by paying repeated visits to the study Both systematic reviews of the area and the responses were obtained on literature and statistical investigations on population samples support the notion that the various parameters to meet the requirements of the study. The data was collected during the first meal of the day is the most period of academic year. The underestimated, and often completely interview schedule was used to elicit the neglected 1. information from the participating subjects Despite the recommendations about their age, sex and socio-economic status. encouraging breakfast consumption, breakfast skipping by children was noted consistently across all regions. In only four countries For the present study, updated Kuppuswamy Socio-economic status scale, 1 19 was used. This scale takes into account education, (Netherlands, Portugal, Denmark, and occupation and income of the family to Sweden) 7 per cent or more children reported categorise families into upper, middle and low eating breakfast daily 18. In India, the socioeconomic status. proportion of children skipping breakfast regularly was even higher (over 5%) 4. In children of all ages, the prevalence of skipping breakfast has increased as they grow older 5. This is especially important, not only for the reasons stated above, but since consumption of Breakfast consumption pattern of children was assessed using questionnaire developed for the purpose. The questionnaire consisted of questions on frequency of consumption and skipping of breakfast. The breakfast consumption pattern of the children breakfast has been shown to track into young was assessed for the past one week. adulthood. Consumption of commonly eaten items Many studies undertaken in developed countries and some developing countries like Iran, suggests that the frequency of breakfast consumption is inversely associated with body mass index among school going children and starting from the first food or beverage in the morning until the first proper solid meal was taken into consideration as breakfast. Based on the frequency of breakfast consumption, the children were classified into two groups i.e., adolescents. breakfast consumers and breakfast skippers. Skipping breakfast among school On completion of questionnaires, children is erratic. It is essential to study the anthropometric measurements such as height breakfast consumption pattern of children. To and weight were undertaken and recorded in provide an explanatory view on the effect of their respective questionnaires using standard breakfast skipping on the nutritional status of techniques given by WHO for anthropometric the children, the study was taken up with the parameters 18. objective to assess the nutritional status of the Height was measured accurately to the children in relation to breakfast skipping in nearest.1 cm using a devised vertical rod. government and private schools of Bengaluru The scale was placed on a horizontally flat city, Karnataka surface and the respondent was standing without shoes on horizontal surface against MATERIAL AND METHODS wall with heels chin tucked in and body Study area and subjects stretched upwards to full extent and head in Children in the age group of 1 to 1 years the Frankfurt plane. were selected through random sampling Copyright Jan.-Feb., 18; IJPAB 646

Descriptive statistics were performed and expressed as means and standard deviation for continuous variables (BMI) or as number of subjects and percentages for nominal variables (socio-demographic and BMI classification). Independent t-test and Chi-squared test (χ²) were used to evaluate the difference between continuous and categorical variables. All the statistical calculations were carried out through IBM SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) for Windows, Version 1.. P values less than.5 were considered as significant. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Socio-demographic profile of the respondents The investigation was carried out on a total of children representing 1, 11 and 1 year age group (5 th, 6 th and 7 th class) belonging to two different schools viz., (Government Higher Primary School) and (Oriental English High School) represented the sample size of 1 each, respectively. The samples included were both boys and girls. Age wise classification showed that 75 (7.5), 77 (8.5%) and 48 (4%) children belonged to 1, 11 and 1 years respectively; whereas gender wise segregation revealed that 19 were boys (54.5%) and 91 were girls (45.5%). Boys outnumbered the girls in the present study (Table 1). As per the socio-economic classification, nearly half of the families (49. %) from School belonged to lower middle class whereas 65 per cent of the families of School belonged to upper middle class. The percentage of families being in upper class was found to be nil in School and 1 per cent in the School. There was significant difference found between the families of two schools with respect to socio-economic class whereas age and gender showed non-significant difference (Table 1).

The study highlights the need of regular breakfast consumption during the transition from childhood to adolescence. Breakfast provision in schools may offer a way to overcome social inequalities in daily breakfast consumption and could serve to yield health benefits associated with breakfast consumption. More research is needed to examine the influence of type of breakfast consumption on the nutritional status over time in larger sample of children.
