“…The "fast food snacks" pattern, including soft drinks, sweets, cakes, cookies, salted snacks, processed meats, and other high-fat products, also identified in other studies 47,49,50,51 , showed positive and moderate associations in all the target pairs.

“…When comparing the dietary habits of Japanese and Nisei (second generation of offspring), Gimeno et al 28 verified that there was a change in the typical Japanese diet in both generations, having been a major change in the latter, with the introduction of a typical Western diet. According to Tamura et al 29 , immigrants present a mortality pattern similar to the degree of acculturation reached, bringing them closer to the morbimortality profile of the Brazilian population.…”
