“…Determining food patterns in this population is an unprecedented finding, because of the method used to determine dietary patterns, highly recommended for approaching the actual behavior of the population studied [40,41], and for extrapolated the combination of nutrients and antinutritional factors involved in the human diet [40]. In addition, can meet the scarcity of studies that investigate the food consumption of farmers or rural populations and their associated factors [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29], especially regarding their labor characteristics [5].…”

“…Despite the finding of an increase in the morbidity and mortality profile of this population [7][8][9][10][11], representative research on the food consumption of farmers and the rural population is still scarce [18], especially studies developed with the purpose of studying the dietary patterns of these populations and their associated factors [4][5][6][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29].…”

Background: The eating habits have changed in the last few decades, but few studies prioritize the food consumption of farmers and the rural population. In this scenario, the objective of this paper was to define the dietary patterns of farmers in a Brazilian municipality and explore the sociodemographic, occupational and lifestyle factors to the high adherence these dietary patterns. Methods: This is a cross-sectional epidemiological study of 740 farmers (51.5%, n=381 males; 48.5%, n=359 females) from a municipality in Southeastern Brazil. Food intake data were obtained by applying multipass 24-hour recall and dietary intake was presented in dietary patterns determined by Principal Component Analysis with varimax orthogonal rotation.Results: Three dietary patterns were identified. The first pattern, “local traditional”, was associated with sociodemographic and labor variables, being considered typical of the region's farmer as white race/color (p=0.003), not extra-physical activity (p=0.014) and cultivating 5 or more crops (p=0.005). The permanence of a “traditional Brazilian” pattern and the occurrence of an “industrialized” pattern were also observed. Farmers working in non-conventional agriculture were 54% less adhere to “traditional Brazilian” pattern (OR 0.46, 95% CI 0.25–0.86, p=0.014). Individuals aged 50 and over years were 82% less likely (OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.10–0.30) to adhere to “industrialized” pattern. Still, individuals of lower socioeconomic class were 52% less likely to adhere to this pattern (OR 0.48, 95% CI 0.24–0.96). Farmers who spent R$ 200 or more per capita to buy food were more than twice as likely to adhere to this food pattern (95% CI 1.32–3.73), and who had the habit of frequently eating out were 1.62 as likely adhere to “industrialized” pattern (95% CI 1.11–2.36). Conclusion: The findings indicate changes in dietary patterns in rural areas of the country, maintaining a traditional Brazilian pattern, as well as a local and an industrialized pattern. This last pattern demonstrates that the contemporary rural population also opts for a diet with ultra-processed products, being associated with the characteristic habits of a more urbanized rural region.

“…Esses resultados em relação a frequência alimentar, foram semelhantes ao encontrado na pesquisa realizada por Silva et al [19] , no qual os itens mais consumidos também foram o arroz, feijão e café. Neste contexto, assim como em outros estudos recentes sobre transição nutricional em diferentes regiões do Brasil [3,12,19,24] , os dados apresentados apontam para uma maior dependência do consumo de alimentos processados e/ou industrializados, enfatizando o problema da transição nutricional que gera novos hábitos alimentares, sobretudo em locais onde as condições de vida são regidas por tradições e hábitos locais. Esse maior investimento em produtos processados, os quais em geral são altamente calóricos (com sabores acentuados e atrativos no tocante ao açúcar e gordura) e normalmente de preparo mais fácil e rápido, acaba levando ao favorecimento do seu consumo [26] mas também ao potencial favorecimento de doenças relacionadas à síndrome metabólica, como diabetes do tipo II e pressão alta [27] .…”

“…Há décadas atrás a população rural brasileira produzia praticamente todos os alimentos que consumia e a população urbana, se dedicava ao preparo de suas refeições utilizando alimentos sazonais e in natura, comprados nas feiras ou pequenos mercados oriundos do meio rural circunvizinho [1] . Já nas últimas décadas, cada vez mais, as populações rurais procuram as capitais e se encaixam, geralmente, entre as famílias de menor poder aquisitivo da zona urbana, aumentando a faixa da população em insegurança alimentar e nutricional [2,3] e as populações urbanas estão cada vez mais expostas a uma imensa variedade de produtos alimentícios, quase sempre transformados industrialmente, e este fenômeno é conhecido como "era dos supermercados" [4,5] .…”

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o grau de insegurança alimentar nos municípios de Cavalcante, Teresina de Goiás e Colinas do Sul, na Chapada dos Veadeiros, Brasil Central. A Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional (SAN) foi avaliada por meio da Escala Brasileira de Insegurança Alimentar (EBIA) e de um roteiro semiestruturado sobre dados socioeconômicos, produção e consumo de alimentos, recordatório alimentar 24 horas e frequência alimentar. Melhor situação (SAN) foi identificada no município de Cavalcante (55% dos entrevistados), seguido por Teresina e Colinas do Sul (ambos com 45%). Uma mudança dos hábitos alimentares locais tem sido observada, com a substituição, principalmente no café da manhã e lanche, dos alimentos produzidos localmente, por alimentos processados e industrializados provenientes de mercados. Foram identificadas, entre as populações estudadas, dificuldades de acesso aos alimentos, problemas socioeconômicos, como baixa renda e reduzida escolaridade, que comprometem a SAN nestes municípios.Palavras-chave: Padrões Alimentares; Escala Brasileira de Insegurança Alimentar; Transição Nutricional. Food and Nutrition Security, Food Habits and Socioeconomic Conditions in Chapada dos Veadeiros in Central BrazilThe goal of this study was to determine the degree of food insecurity in three municipalities of Central Brazil, Cavalcante, Teresina de Goiás and Colinas do Sul, at Chapada dos Veadeiros. Food and Nutrition Security (FNS) was estimated by using the Brazilian Scale of Food Insecurity (EBIA) and a semi-structured questionnaire about household conditions, food production and consumption, 24h food recall method and food frequency. This survey included one adult from 40 domestic units in every municipality. About 55% of the domestic units in Cavalcante and 45% in Teresina and Colinas were inserted into FNS program. We found a clear transition from locally produced foods toward to industrialized processed items. Breakfast and coffee breaks were considered the daily meals with the highest percentage of processed items. The survey have shown that the populations from the three municipalities have difficulties related to food access together with socioeconomic issues such as low-income families and lower education, indicating that FNS quite compromised. Therefore, the dependency on food market consumption contributes to an increasing
