Consumption of food groups in adults with overweight
Abstract
Introduction: Obesity is defined as a chronic disease, characterized by the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue, food consumption is directly related to excessive weight gain. Objective: To evaluate the consumption of food groups in overweight subjects. Methods: This cross-sectional study was attended by 102 adult individuals. Were submitted to anthropometric and later allocated in two groups: eutrophic (n = 43) and overweight (n = 59). Food intake was assessed by two 24-h recalls. The foods and preparations consumed were processed into portions and distributed into eight food groups according to the food pyramid. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test and Mann Whitney test (α = 5%). Results: Among the participants, 42.2% were eutrophic and 57.8% overweight. The majority were female sex (n=82), with low income (41.17%) and low education level. The food consumption was lower than recommended by food pyramid and there was no difference in portion consumption among the groups of individuals. Discussion: The population studied presented a high percentage of overweight, a nutritional profile that is increasing vertiginously among Brazilian adults. The consumption of food groups was inadequate, the fruit group was the one that most approached the recommended portion and the dairy products were highlighted for the low consumption among the overweight individuals. Conclusion: Individuals presented inadequacy in the consumption of food groups, regardless of nutritional status, with little food variation.
