Artigo submetido em 28.09.00, aceito em 25.07.01. ResumoObjetivo: avaliar o consumo médio alimentar de energia, de proteína, de cálcio, de ferro e de vitaminas A e C de adolescentes.Métodos: estudo transversal em uma escola pública de ensino fundamental e médio, no município de São Paulo, com 92 alunos, de ambos os sexos, entre 11 e 17 anos, do ensino fundamental, em 1998. A amostra foi selecionada utilizando-se um procedimento sistemáti-co, com intervalo 2, de acordo com a série e sexo. Os dados de consumo alimentar foram coletados através do recordatório de 24 horas e comparados com as recomendações preconizadas pelo National Research Council de 1989.Resultados: os consumos médios de energia, de proteínas e de vitamina C, para ambos os sexos, ultrapassaram a recomendação. O consumo médio de ferro para o sexo masculino ultrapassou a recomendação e, para o feminino, atingiu mais que 80%. O consumo médio de cálcio para o sexo masculino atingiu menos que 70% da recomendação e para o feminino, menos que 50%.Conclusões: pode-se concluir que os principais problemas detectados foram o baixo consumo médio de cálcio e elevado consumo de energia.J Pediatr (Rio J) 2001; 77 (6): 512-16: adolescente, nutrição do adolescente, consumo de alimentos. AbstractObjective: to assess the average intake of energy, protein, calcium, iron, vitamins A and C in adolescents.Methods: cross-sectional study in a high school in São Paulo, Brazil, with 92 students, both males and females, aged between 11 and 17. The sample was chosen by a systematic statistical selection. The food intake was determined by 24-h diet recall and compared with the National Research Council recommendation (1989).Results: the average intake of energy, proteins and vitamin C by both males and females was higher than the recommendation. The average iron intake by males was higher than the recommendation and more than 80% in females. The average calcium intake by males was less than 70% and less than 50% in females.Conclusions: low average intake of calcium and high average intake of energy were observed.J Pediatr (Rio J) 2001; 77 (6): 512-16: adolescent, adolescent nutrition, food consuption.

Trata-se de um período de elevada demanda nutricional, e, por este motivo, a nutrição desempenha um papel importante no desenvolvimento do adolescente, uma vez que o consumo de uma dieta inadequada pode influenciar de forma desfavorável o crescimento somático 1 .As modificações na composição do organismo têm uma grande importância com relação às recomendações nutricionais e com os padrões alimentares que favorecem a saúde dos adolescentes. As necessidades energéticas aumentam com o rápido crescimento, com a maior proporção de ma...

“…The mechanism by which milk consumption affects obesity indices is not accurately known. Most studies 47,48 have cited calcium as a responsible factor. So, an inverse relationship has been suggested between calcium intake and body weight and body fat mass in various ways.…”

Objective: To determine the correlates of central adiposity. Design: Population-based cross-sectional study. Subjects: A total of 926 women (aged 40-60 years) from all districts of Tehran. Methods: Demographic data were collected and anthropometric indices were measured according to standard protocols. Dietary intakes were assessed by means of a semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaire. The suggested cut-off point for waist-to-hip ratio (WHR $ 0.84) for Tehrani people, adjusted for their age group, was used to determine central adiposity. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the correlates of WHR, which were adjusted for age, taking medications and body mass index (BMI). The components of dietary intake were determined by factor analysis. Pearson correlation was used to determine the association between the dietary components and WHR. Analysis of covariance was employed to compare the mean values of WHR in different lifestyle groups, with adjustment for BMI and age.

“…Particularly, dairy foods are the most important source of dietary calcium providing more than half of total intake (Bergstrom et al, 1993;Deutsche Gesellschaft für Ernährung, 1994;Fleming & Heimbach, 1994;Nitzan Kaluski et al, 2001). Several dietary surveys have reported an adequate calcium intake in children and adolescents on average, for example, in the Netherlands (Lowik et al, 1994) or Norway (Andersen et al, 1995).…”

“…Calcium intake data from the previous German National Food Consumption Survey 1986-1989(Deutsche Gesellschaft für Ernährung, 1994) for 4 to 18-y-old children and adolescents (boys: 720-940 mg/day, girls: 680-760 mg/day) were well below the recent US adequate intakes (Institute of Medicine, 1999). Several surveys have identified female adolescents as a risk group for inadequate calcium intakes (Hackett et al, 1984;Fleming & Heimbach, 1994;Rockett et al, 1996;Suitor & Gleason, 2002). Low calcium intakes were also reported for US preschool children in a low socioeconomic community (Nitzan Kaluski et al, 2001).…”

Objective: Examination of time trends in the consumption of dairy food and their impact on fat and calcium intakes in German children and adolescents. Design: Dietary records from the DONALD Study (DOrtmund Nutritional and Anthropometric Longitudinally Designed Study). Methods: A total of 5068 3-day weighed dietary records from 914 1 to 13-y-old children and adolescents collected between 1986 and 2001 were analysed using a mixed linear model, in which the means of the data and the covariance structure specific to the DONALD Study were modelled. Results: During the study period, the consumption of 'milk products' in children and adolescents Z4 y remained stable, since the reduced consumption of 'fluid milk' (between À2.8 and À7.4 g/day/study year) was compensated for by an increased consumption of 'yoghurt' (between þ 2.4 and þ 3.3 g/day/study year). The consumption of 'cheese' increased in subjects Z4 y (between þ 0.2 and þ 0.7 g/day/study year). In 1 to 3-y-old children, the decreased intake of 'fluid milk' (À6.5 g/day/study year) was not compensated for by the increased intake of 'formula' ( þ 3.5 g/day/study year). The percentage of 'low-fat milk products' significantly increased (although not significant in 9-13-y-old boys) to nearly 25% of milk products. The impact of dairy food on fat intake (as percentage of energy intake) remained stable with the exception of a slight reduction in 4-8 y olds, the impact of dairy on calcium (as percentage of US adequate intake) decreased only in 1-3 y olds. Conclusions: The consumption of dairy food remained widely stable over time in Z4-y-old children and adolescents, but decreased in 1-3 y olds. A further decline in this age group would be undesirable as is the shift from common milk to formula. The intake of 'low-fat milk products' increased and should be continuously promoted.
