This study investigated acculturation and food intake patterns of Korean Americans to examine their dietary life and relationship between acculturation level and food intake pattern. The subjects were 193 Korean Americans(87 men and 106 women) living in Chicago, America. Main results from this study are as follows. First, The high-acculturated group showed younger age, longer length of residence in America and higher education and Body Mass Index. The low-acculturated group demonstrated significantly higher morbidity of digestive diseases and arthritis. Second, as a result of examining food intake patterns by food groups, it was found that vegetables were consumed more in women than in men and women consumed more plant foods and men consumed more animal foods. Third, while the high-acculturation group consumed more frequent animal foods including meats, milk and dairy products, the low-acculturation group consumed more frequent plant foods such as vegetables and fruits, fishes, beans and sesame oil. Fourth, acculturation had positive correlations with grains, milk and negative correlations with vegetables. Korean Americans experienced changes in their dietary habits and since the higher acculturation was consumed more frequent grains, milk and less frequent vegetables, education for increasing intake frequency of vegetables, fruits, fishes, and milk with high acculturation group is required. It is considered that such a dietary life education will contribute to maintenance of good health and prevention of diseases in Korean Americans.
