摘要：

This study examined the frequency and characteristics of fast food consumption, and obesity prevalence among community members who attended health centres in the Gombak District. In total, 1173 Malaysian adults were interviewed based on a structured questionnaire. Fast food consumption was higher for mostly young Malays and significantly associated with age, ethnicity, number of children in the household, and perception of their general health in a multivariate model. 21.3% of respondents were obese. However, it was not associated with frequenting fast food restaurants. The high prevalence of fast food consumption points for the need to further educate the community in making healthier life options. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
