Propensity Score Adjusted analysis of the Association between Food Insecurity and the Total number of Obesity-Related Comorbidities

	β	95% CI	p value
Food secure	Ref
Food insecure	0.09	0.02, 0.15	0.01
Food secure	Ref
Marginal food security	− 0.01	− 0.09, 0.06	0.72
Low food security	0.02	− 0.05, 0.09	0.58
Very low food security	0.17	0.07, 0.28	0.003

We used negative binomial regression to test the association between FI and the total number of medical comorbidities

Italics means the results were significantly different (p<0.05)
