Objective: This study aims to investigate the effects of nutritional status of individuals between the ages of 20-45 on emotional eating, night eating and sleep quality. Methods: 378 individuals between the ages of 20-45 years were included in the study. The nutritional status of individuals was obtained by using the retrospective individual food consumption recall method and the catalog of nutrient and food photographs, and anthropometric measurements were taken. In addition, Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ-R21), Night Eating Questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PUKI) were used. Results: Cognitive restriction scores of individuals with normal body weight are lower than those with overweight (p<0.05). Evening hyperphagia scores of underweight individuals were higher than overweight individuals (p<0.05). There were positive correlations between carbohydrate intakes and night eating, mood and sleep disorder scores of male individuals, as well as between disaccharide intake and evening hyperphagia scores (p<0.05). Negative correlations were found between carbohydrate intake of women and cognitive restriction, night eating, mood and sleep disorder scores (p<0.05). Conclusion: : Emotional eating behaviors, night eating tendencies and sleep quality that individuals show depending on their changing emotional states may affect their nutritional status and food consumption amounts, so it is important to evaluate these factors in order to provide body weight control and maintain healthy eating habits.
