Introduction: metabolic syndrome (SM) is a set of metabolic imbalances that are associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes mellitus, in addition to other chronic non-communicable diseases. SM has been gaining prominence in the scientific community mainly due to link with the increase of the obesity epidemic in the world. Objective: To analyze the factors associated with metabolic syndrome and its prevalence in a vulnerable population in the Northern Region of Brazil. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with artisanal fishers from the state of Tocantins, and data collected between 2016 and 2017 were used. The outcome variable for MS was defined according to the criteria of the International Diabetes Federation. The following variables were assessed: socioeconomic and demographic information, fish consumption, and smoking. For statistical and data analysis, the Shapiro–Wilk test, Poisson regression, Student's t-test, and interquartile regression were evaluated. Results: The general prevalence rate (PR) of MS was 31.9% higher in women than in men. The factors associated with MS were economic class and smoking, and there was an association between socioeconomic class and smoking (p=0.015). The most prevalent component was abdominal obesity with a rate of 62.5% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 54.5, 70.5). The prevalence of MS in terms of sex (PR=2.27, 95% 1.04 CI, 4.92, p=0.037), smoking (PR=2.40, 95% CI, 30, p=0.003) and years of professional experience (>10 PR=2.07, 95% CI 1.06, 4.05, p=0.033) was also assessed. Conclusion: In the present study, the prevalence of SM was associated with smoking and socioeconomic status, which is considered high when compared to the worldwide prevalence. These findings highlight the importance of looking at public policies so that health services can develop actions that generate greater adherence to good health practices by the population.

Onternational institutions, such as ODM (Onstitute of Medicine) and FAD/WHD (Food and Agriculture Drganization of the United Nations/World Health Drganization), have suggested regular fish consumption at least twice a week in order to reach benefits (Hellberg et al., 2012).Despite information based on scientific research regarding its importance and relevance to health, fish consumption displays a distinguished behavior worldwide (Maciel et al., 2016). Countries with native communities, for example, have an average consumption per capita 15-fold greater than those with urban populations (Cisneros-Montemayor et al., 2016). Fish is also part of the traditional diet in Asian countries. However, despite its high quality, fish is not part of the usual diet and culture of many western countries, as observed in Australia (Birch & Lawley, 2013) and Brazil (Maciel et al., 2013).On addition, FAD indicates a relationship with fish consumption and economic development. On 2009, in European and North America countries, fish consumption reached 22-24 kg person/year, in developing countries, fish consumption was 17 kg person/year and in low-income countries with food shortages, 10.1 kg (Barbaroux et al., 2012).Ot is assumed, therefore, that fish consumption is influenced by lifestyle-related indicators, socio-demographic issues and previous experiences with fish products (Myrland et al., 2000;Cardoso et al., 2016).Given that fish consumption can be an important part of a healthy lifestyle, it is hypothesized that individuals with higher fish consumption tend to have higher level of physical activity and higher scores in the perception of life quality (Maciel et al., 2016). Thus, this study evaluated the level of physical activity and perception of life quality among groups of higher and lower frequency of fish consumption
