| Abstract: | Background High fat, salt and sugar (HFSS) food consumption and its consequences has become a major public health concern globally because of its deteriorating health consequences and urging prevalence. Though its adverse health consequences are widely prevalent in all age groups, children and adolescents are more at risk. Disturbances of Agni is the basic source aetiology for producing different kinds of bodily ailments. When Agni is in imbalanced stage, either in Mandagni stage, tiksāhgni stage or Vishamagni stage, the symptoms are observed in the body. Aim: To assess the association of High Fat, Salt, Sugar (HFSS) foods consumption on Agni among young individuals Materials and methods A cross sectional study was conducted among 101 participants of age group (13-17 years) and (18-25 years). Random purposive sampling technique was used. A general questionnaire was used to get the demographic data of the participants. Basic information regarding age, gender, education status, sleep status, exercise status no. of family members, medical history, diet habits was recorded as a demographic profile. Further on a non-quantitative food frequency questionnaire and two-day diet recall (1 weekend + 1 weekday) was administered to assess consumption of High fat, salt and sugar (HFSS) foods. An Agni assessment questionnaire was administered to the participants to assess the nature of their Agni. Lastly, a questionnaire was administered to observe the clinical symptoms of indigestion associated with vitiated Agni in the participants. Analysis was performed using SPSS version 25 for Windows (version 25, 2017, IBM Corporation, Armonk, New York, United States). Data presented as Mean±SD, Median (minimum-maximum) or frequency (%). Spearman correlation was used to analyse correlation of AGNI score with HFSS frequency, meal distribution and nutrient intake. P<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results Participants experienced clinical symptoms of indigestion (Ajirna) as the highest percentage in agreement are for belching/belching (30.7%), bloating (24.8%) and excessive thirst (23.8%). The highest percentage in strong disagreement are for Diarrhoea (52.5%), Nausea/vomiting (52.5%), heaviness of head (40.6%) and heaviness of abdomen (34.7%). The Mean frequency of incidence of symptoms when classified according to age groups showed that there was a statistical significant difference for abdominal pain and burning sensation when classified according to age groups (<0.005). The mean frequency of symptoms like abdominal pain, burning sensation (acidity) and constipation was more in age group (13-17 years) as compared to (18-25 years). On assessing the correlation of Agni and symptoms of Indigestion (Ajirna). It was observed that all the Agni’s except Tikshnagni had an association with consumption of High Fat, Salt, Sugar (HFSS) foods Conclusion This study revealed that there is an association when one consumes foods in High fat, salt and sugar which influence the Agni in such a way that it reflects symptoms of indigestion (Ajirna) like abdominal pain, constipation, burping. |
