We aimed to analyze the effects of shift work on health status and dietary habit for the coast guard officer in Sonthern District. Methods: A cross-sectional study was used in this survey for the coast guard officer in Sonthern District, a total of 101 subjects were recruited. Demographic characteristics, lifestyle pattern questions, dietary status, anthropometric measurements, body fat and blood pressure were assessed among these coast guards. Results: No significant differences were found for lifestyle, except for late night meal between two groups. There was a higher waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), body fat, waist-hip ratio (WHR) and body mass index (BMI) in shift worker group compared with day-time coast guard (p < 0.05). Mean intakes of total calorie, carbohydrate, lipid and Na were significantly higher in shift worker group than in day time coast guard (p < 0.05), but no significant differences in protein intake, vitamin intake or mineral intake. Conclusions: we found a significant trend of increased risk for both overweight and obesity with increasing duration of rotating shift work and increased in calorie intake among these shift workers.
