Factors associated with stages of change for red meat and vegetable intake by Japanese-Brazilians

Abstract

Factors associated with stages of change for red meat and vegetable intake by Japanese-Brazilians (OR = 1.89; 95%CI: 1.154; 3.103) and physically active individuals (OR = 1.00; 95%CI: 1.000; 1.001) were positively associated with stage of "action" for the higher intake of vegetables. Inverse associations were observed between central obesity (OR = 0.5; 95%CI: 0.351; 0.887) and highest tertile of red meat intake (OR = 0.50; 95%CI: 0.302; 0.817)
