Background.
There is conflicting evidence regarding the association of body mass index (BMI) with mental distress.
Studies have focused on different dimensions of mental health and used different definitions and many of them have not controlled for confounding factors.
The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between frequent mental distress (FMD) and BMI among adults in the United States, with special emphasis on gender differences.
Methods.
Data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) for the year 2011 were used in logistic regression models to predict FMD, defined as having 14 or more days of poor mental health in the previous month.
Sociodemographic factors, tobacco and alcohol use, diet and physical activity, and number of chronic diseases were controlled for.
Results.
11.95% (n = 53,715) of the participants with valid responses (n = 496,702) had FMD.
The adjusted ORs of having FMD among underweight, overweight, and obese females were 1.13 (95% CI: 1.10, 1.60), 1.10 (95% CI: 1.03, 1.19), and 1.21 (95% CI: 1.13, 1.31), respectively, but they were not statistically significant for males.
Conclusions.
These findings suggest a relationship between BMI and FMD, independent of other variables.
It may be useful to explore longitudinal trend in this association.
