Recent studies demonstrated that intervention using a mobile phone was associated with significant changes in the body weight and body mass index by providing a self-monitoring program of dietary intake.However, there are very few reports concerning the direct influence of smartphone use on food intake or the reproductive function. Therefore, we examined this issue by conducting a questionnaire survey of 213 Japanese female college students aged from 18-20 years old. There was no significant relationship between smartphone use during meals and menstrual disorders.In contrast, the incidence of body weight gain was significantly higher in populations who use a smartphone during meals than students who did not use a smartphone while eating.Although the precise mechanism remains unclear, this study newly provides important and cautionary evidence that smartphone use during meals may interfere with an adequate control of food intake by adversely affecting appetite.
