چکیده

Background and Aim: The objective of our study was to examine the association between food stress and obesity using this question as a surrogate for food insecurityMethods: Our analytic sample included 1230 adults from Ardebil. Food insecurity was determined by response (always/usually/sometimes) to the question, Howoften in the past 12 months would you say you were worried or stressed about having enough money to buy nutritious meals T tests were used to compare prevalence differences between groups, and logistic regression was used to examine the association between food insecurity and obesity.Results: the prevalence of obesity was 32.5% overall, 12.5% among food secure adults, and 20% among food insecure adults. Food insecure adults had 36% increased odds of being obese compared to food secure adults Conclusion: Food insecurity was associated with obesity in the overall population . These findings are consistent with previous research and highlight the importance of increasing access to affordable healthy foods for all adults
