Recent studies suggest that coffee and green tea, which are widely consumed in Korea, may be associated with depression, but previous studies have rarely considered socioeconomic, health-related factors. This study investigated the association between coffee, green tea consumption and depression among Korean adults after adjusting for socioeconomic, health- related factors. Using data from KNHANES(2014, 2016), 6015 adult participants were analyzed. Consumption of coffee, green tea was assessed using a FFQ, and depression was defined using the PHQ-9. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to estimate ORs, adjusting for demographic variables, socioeconomic factors, and health-related factors such as hypertension, diabetes, stroke, cancer, arthritis, and thyroid disease. After adjusting for all covariates, coffee consumption was not significantly associated with depression (OR=0.90, 95% CI=0.60-1.35), In contrast, green tea consumption remained significantly associated with lower odds of depression (OR=0.41, 95% CI=0.19-0.89). Participants who consumed green tea less than once a week (OR=0.49, 95% CI=0.30-0.80) had lower odds of depression compared with non-consumers. Green tea consumption was associated with lower odds of depression after adjustment for socioeconomic and health-related factors, whereas coffee consumption showed no significant association. However, further well-designed longitudinal studies are needed to clarify the causal relationship.
