Patterns of eating habits were analyzed to elucidate its relationship to the temporal change of body build from childhood through school age in subjects of the Toyama study. Survey questionnaires at the time of entrance to elementary school were used. Subjects were 6,452 (males 3,293, and females 3,159). Subjects were classified into 6 clusters among the males, 8 clusters among females based on the results of cluster analysis of eating habits. The cluster in males that preferred egg, milk, dairy products, fats, fish and shellfish, soybeans, fruits, green yellow vegetables indicated more frequent subjects whose BMI were less that 14. The cluster in girls that preferred fats indicated more frequent subjects whose BMI were more or equal to 18. The ANOVA showed significant relation of parental body build on their children. Even after grouping by parental body build, the cluster based on patterns of eating habits showed different frequencies of obese children. Preference for intake of milk indicated less frequent obese children among the similar parental body build for boys, while preference for intake of fats indicated more frequent obese children among a similar parental body build for girls. In conclusion, the obesity of a school child has a close relationship to parent's body build. However, the temporal changes of obesity were seen among eating habits clusters even if body builds of their parents are the same. It was shown that patterns of eating habit are important in school children's obesity development.
