In Malaysia, there are limited studies that have focused on the association between sociodemographic profiles, body composition, lipid profiles and handgrip strength with energy intake among patients in Dietetics Clinic. Hence, the objectives of this study were to determine the associations between sociodemographic profiles, body composition, lipid profiles and handgrip strength with energy intake among patients in Dietetics Clinic, HPUPM. Method: A crosssectional study was done among 35 patients from Dietetics Clinic, HPUPM.

Result: A total of 40% (n=14) of the patients have adequate energy intake and 60% (n=21) have inadequate energy intake with the mean energy intake was 1644 kcal/ day. Factors such as age, gender and ethnicity, BMI and body fat percentage, triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL-C and HDL-C, handgrip strength were not significantly associated with the energy intake.
