Abstract
Introduction: Television (TV) viewing time is positively associated with the metabolic syndrome (MetS) in adults. However, the mechanisms through which TV viewing time increases MetS risk is unclear. Snack food consumption has been shown to be positively correlated with adult TV viewing time, suggesting that snacking and TV viewing may jointly contribute towards MetS risk. While we have previously showed the association between TV viewing time and the MetS is independent of adult's overall dietary intake, the influence of snacking behavior on this relationship remains unclear.
