Abstract

Obesity is caused by excessive storage of fat reserves in the body due to an imbalance of energy stored and energy expended. Excess and unhealthy eating patterns are associated with the incidence of obesity in Indonesia. In Indonesia itself, the population with obesity was 21.8% in 2018, and the prevalence of obesity was 29.8% of Jakarta population. The study aims to describe obese adult men's food intake as the preliminary data that can be used for dietary education material. This research was a descriptive study conducted on 50 participants living in Jakarta. The participants were healthy adult men aged 19 -59 years with BMI ≥25 kg/m2. Food intake was assessed through an interview with the 24-hour recall method implemented twice (once on a weekday and once on the weekend). The average total energy per day was 1597 kcal/day, the protein was 64 g/day, the fat was 71 g/day, and the carbohydrate was 198 g/day. The amount of energy, carbohydrate, and protein intake was still less than the recommended dietary allowance (RDA). These findings suggest that the occurrence of obesity in adult men in Jakarta might be influenced by other factors, such as genetics and physical activity.
