ResumoIntrodução: O consumo adequado de frutas, legumes e verduras é considerado um importante fator na redução da incidência de doenças cardiovasculares e determinados tipos de câncer. Objetivo: Estimar a prevalência do consumo adequado de frutas, legumes e verduras e fatores associados. Métodos: Estudo transversal com amostra probabilística de adultos (N = 1.890), residentes em domicílios com linhas telefônicas fixas em Florianópolis, 2005. O desfecho foi o consumo adequado de frutas, legumes e verduras, definido pela frequência diária de cinco ou mais vezes de consumo destes alimentos. Os resultados das análises multivariáveis para associação entre consumo adequado e variáveis independentes foram expressos como razão de prevalência. Resultados: A prevalência do consumo adequado de frutas, legumes e verduras foi de 21,9% (25,0% mulheres e 18,7% homens). Entre as mulheres, maiores prevalências de consumo adequado foram associadas ao aumento da faixa etária, ao fato de não trabalhar (RP = 1,5; IC 95%: 1,1; 2,0), ter estado de saúde bom ou excelente (RP = 1,4; IC 95%: 1,0; 1,8) e ao não tabagismo (RP = 1,3; IC 95%: 1,0; 1,9). Entre os homens, maior prevalência de consumo adequado foi observada para os que relataram ser casados (RP = 1,9; IC 95%: 1,2; 3,0) e não ter excesso de peso (RP = 1,9; IC 95%: 1,3; 2,7). Em ambos os sexos o consumo adequado apresentou associação com atividade física no lazer (mulheres RP = 1,5; IC 95%: 1,2; 1,9; homens RP = 1,8; IC 95%: 1,1; 2,8). Conclusões: Intervenções visando aumentar este consumo devem levar em consideração as diferenças observadas entre os sexos. Palavras AbstractIntroduction: The adequate consumption of fruits and vegetables is regarded as an important factor for the reduction in the incidence of cardiovascular diseases and specific types of cancer. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of adequate consumption of fruits and vegetables and associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study with a random sample of adults (N = 1,890) from Florianopolis (Southern Brazil), living in households with a fixed telephone line in 2005. The study outcome was the adequate consumption of fruits and vegetables defined as the frequency of consumption of five or more times/day. Multivariate analysis of the association between adequate conadequate consumption and independent variables was expressed as prevalence ratios. Results: The prevalence of adequate consumption of fruits and vegetables was 21.9% (25.0% among women and 18.7% among men). Among women, higher frequencies of adequate consumption was associated with age, not currently working (PR = 1.5; 95%CI: 1.1, 2.0), health status perceived as good or excellent (PR = 1.4; 95%CI: 1.0, 1.8), and never having smoked (PR = 1.3; IC 95%: 1.0, 1.9). Men who were married (PR = 1.9; 95%CI: 1.2, 3.0) and who showed no overweight (PR = 1.9; 95%CI: 1.3, 2.7) were more likely to report adequate consumption. For both sexes the adequate consumption was associated with leisure time physical activity (women PR = 1.5; 95%CI 1.2, 1.9; men PR = 1....
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the association between leisure-time physical inactivity and sociodemographic factors and risk or protection factors for chronic noncommunicable diseases among adults. METHODS:Cross-sectional study comprising adults aged 18 years and older (n = 1,996). Data was obtained from the Surveillance System for Risk Factors for Chronic Noncommunicable Diseases (CNCDs), a random-digit-dialed telephone survey carried out in the city of Florianópolis, southern Brazil, in 2005. There were studied sociodemographic, and behavioral protective and risk factors. Results of the multivariate analysis of the association between leisure-time physical inactivity and independent variables were expressed as prevalence ratios. RESULTS:The prevalence of leisure-time physical inactivity was 54.6% (47.3% among men, 61.4% among women). After adjustment, among men, higher physical inactivity was positively associated with older age, lower schooling, and inversely associated with working status; and lower physical inactivity was associated with alcohol abuse, regardless of age, schooling, and work status. Among women, higher leisure-time physical inactivity was positively associated with schooling (less than 12 years of education) and working status. The analyses adjusted for schooling and work status showed higher physical inactivity among those women reporting consuming fruits and vegetables less than five times a day and whole milk. CONCLUSIONS:Factors associated with leisure-time physical inactivity were different among men and women. Among women, physical inactivity was associated to risk factors for chronic diseases, especially eating habits. Among men, physical inactivity was associated to sociodemographic factors.
OBJETIVO: Este estudo descreve o perfil alimentar de indivíduos saudáveis, em seu ambiente natural, a partir da análise da ingestão de energia e macronutrientes nos lanches e refeições e sua distribuição circadiana. MÉTODOS: Dezessete voluntários, professores e funcionários técnico-administrativos de uma instituição de ensino de Florianópolis com idade média de 46,71 (±2,2) anos, e índice de massa corporal médio de 24,93 (±0,9) kg/m² registraram, durante sete dias consecutivos, o tipo e a quantidade de alimentos e bebidas consumidos, especificando o modo de preparo, o tipo de evento alimentar (refeição ou lanche), a hora do dia e o dia da semana. RESULTADOS: Realizaram-se, em média, 2,7 refeições e 3,2 lanches diariamente. Os lanches e as refeições mostraram diferenças entre si, tanto em relação à proporção de macronutrientes quanto ao valor energético total. As refeições forneceram cerca de três vezes mais calorias que os lanches e foram compostas, predominantemente, por proteínas e lipídios, enquanto nos lanches predominaram os carboidratos. A hora do dia também mostrou exercer influência no consumo. CONCLUSÃO: No período das 12h às 15h59min, o consumo foi significativamente maior que nos demais momentos do dia, mas não se observou um aumento significativo do consumo energético total nos dias do fim de semana.
