Background This study was performed to describe the relationship between lifestyle and the use of functional food and to evaluate associated factors affecting functional food use. Methods The subject of this study included 12,057 adults(males 6,446, females 5,611) aged 20years or older who visited the Health Promotion Center of SNUH. This study was conducted by direct questionnaire about socio-demographic characteristics, use of functional food, lifestyle pattern and perceived health status from the January 2000 to the January 2004. Results forty-nine percent of the respondents had previously taken functional food and others had not. Those with lower educational level showed more use rate of functional food. Analysis of lifestyle patterns and the use of functional food showed that those with higher use rate of functional food reported more exercise, more periodic screenings. But there were no associations of functional food use with smoking and alcohol drinking. Those who have used functional food more often had history of admission and operation and poorer perceived health status. There were no associations of functional food use with age, sex, monthly income, occupation or marital status. Conclusions More use of functional food has associations with a concern about health and poorer perceived health status.
