  1. Data are presented as OR (95% CI)
  2. Model 1: adjusted for age, gender and energy intake
  3. Model 2: adjusted for variables included in model 2 plus physical activity (continuous), marital status (married vs. single vs. divorced), supplement use (yes vs. no), house possession (owner vs. non-owner), education (university graduate vs. non-university education), family size (≥ 4 vs. ˂4 people), current smoking, night shift working, and history of thyroid problems (yes vs. no) and depression (yes vs. no)
  4. Model 3: adjusted for variables included in model 3 plus the intake of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and dairies
  5. *Obtained from the binary logistic regression
