Cross-sectional study investigates the link between night eating syndrome and diet quality in women, suggesting potential for health improvement.
This online cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between night eating syndrome (NES) and diet quality in adult women. Demographic characteristics, anthropometric measurements, and diet were self-reported. The Night Eating Questionnaire categorized participants into night eating groups, and the Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015 evaluated diet quality. Night eaters had a significantly lower HEI score (n = 27; HEI = 59.2 ± 11.4) compared to non-night eaters (n = 432; HEI = 65.0 ± 9.8; P < .003). Night eating was associated with obesity ( P < .001). Future research may provide insights into using diet quality to enhance the efficacy of weight management interventions and promote positive health behaviors for women with NES.
