This study aimed to examine the association between hydration status and body composition in children and adolescents. The results showed that total water intake was significantly associated with lean mass, but urine specific gravity and total water intake were not significantly associated with body composition. Therefore, further research should be conducted to explore other objective markers of hydration and with a larger sample.
Objectives: Children 10-20 years old in the US are currently obese, showing suboptimal hydration as 60% fail to meet the US Dietary Reference Intakes for water. Studies have shown a significant inverse association between hydration status and body composition in children, although most failed to use the Dual-X-Ray Absorptiometry Scan (DEXA), the gold standard for body composition. Limited studies used an objective marker to measure hydration, such as urine specific gravity (USG) from a 24-h urine collection. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the association between hydration status (measured from USG in a 24-h urine sample and assessed from three 24-h dietary recalls) and body fat % and lean mass (assessed from a DEXA scan) in children (10-13 years, n=34) and adolescents (18-20 years, n=34). Methods: Body composition was measured using DEXA, total water intake (mL/d) was assessed from three 24-h dietary recalls and analyzed using the Nutrition Data System for Research (NDSR). Hydration status was objectively measured using USG via 24-h urine collection. Results: Overall body fat % was 31.7 +/- 7.31, total water intake was 1746 +/- 762.0 mL/d, and USG score was 1.020 +/- 0.011 uG. Linear regressions showed significance between total water intake and lean mass (B=12.2, p<0.05). Logistic regressions showed no significant association between body composition and USG and total water intake. Conclusions: Findings showed total water intake was significantly associated with lean mass. Future research should be conducted to explore other objective markers of hydration and with a larger sample.
