“…A study carried out with data from the Family Budget Survey, with approximately 56 thousand households, showed that overweight is directly related to the private health expenditure of Brazilian families, which can contribute to increase inequalities, since the less affluent population spends a higher proportion of their income on health when compared to the more affluent families (6% and 3.4%, respectively) [ 34 ]. In addition, being overweight brings costs to several other health care sectors.…”

Objective: To describe the inequalities in the double burden of malnutrition (DBM) in the adult population.Methods: Study carried out with data from the VIGITEL study, conducted in 2019 in all Brazilian capitals. Underweight and excess weight were evaluated on the basis of years of schooling and age. Multi-level analysis was performed including Human Development Index of each capital and individual-level variables. The inequality slope index was used to assess the magnitude of the inequalities found. All analyses considered the svy command owing to the complexity of the sampling process.Results: 47.119 individuals were studied. Men with no education had 6 percentage points more underweight compared to those with higher education. Higher prevalence of excess weight was found among men with higher education and women with no education. In women, the difference was 18 percentage points between extreme categories. Elderly people with no education had 10 percentage points more excess weight than those with higher education.Conclusions: The findings suggest the need for intersectoral actions that can cope with the social inequalities and help confronting with the DBM in Brazil.

“…Obesity is considered a public-health problem, with both direct and indirect costs [ 1 , 2 , 3 ], such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and hypertension, workdays lost, physician visits, disability pensions, and premature mortality [ 4 ]. In recent decades, there has been a change in eating behavior where the preference for palatable food has prevailed.…”

Background: The high consumption of fat and sugar contributes to the development of obesity and co-morbidities, such as diabetes, and cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Different strategies have been used to prevent these diseases associated with obesity, such as changes in eating habits and/or the addition of dietary components with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties, such as gamma-oryzanol (γOz) present mainly in bran layers and rice germ. Methods: Animals were randomly divided into four experimental groups and fed ad libitum for 20 weeks with control diet (C, n = 8), control diet + γOz (C + γOz, n = 8), high-sugar and high-fat diet (HSF, n = 8), and high-sugar and high-fat diet + γOz (HSF + γOz, n = 8). HSF groups also received water + sucrose (25%). The dose of γOz was added to diets to reach 0.5% of final concentration (w/w). Evaluation in animals included food and caloric intake, body weight, plasma glucose, insulin, triglycerides, uric acid, HOMA-IR, glomerular filtration rate, protein/creatinine ratio, systolic blood pressure, and Doppler echocardiographic. Results: Animals that consumed the HSF diet had weight gain compared to group C, increased insulin, HOMA, glucose and triglycerides, there were also atrial and ventricular structural alterations, deterioration of systolic and diastolic function, decreased glomerular filtration rate, and proteinuria. Gamma-oryzanol is significantly protective against effects on body weight, hypertriglyceridemia, renal damage, and against structural and functional alteration of the heart. Conclusion: Gamma-oryzanol shows potential as a therapeutic to prevent Cardiorenal Metabolic Syndrome.

“…These results confirm the findings of other studies, that indicate that smaller and less economically favoured regions have a higher prevalence of overweight 5,17 . In developed countries the situation is reversed, with lower classes being more affected by being overweight 1,2 . The aforementioned authors try to explain this problem by the lower prevalence of overweight in the less favoured economic classes in the developing countries, by the lack of foods for a balanced diet of nutrients, associated to a greater energy expenditure during the day, in the higher income classes the frequency of excess weight becomes…”

“…A sedentary lifestyle and a poor standard of food can contribute to excess weight gain among adolescents, considered a risk factor for diseases such as respiratory problems, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and dyslipidemia 2 , accounting for a large share of spending on public health 3 . In Brazil, data from surveys conducted by the Brazilian Institute of Statistical Geography (IBGE) showed that overweight boys aged 10 to 19 years increased from 3.7% (1974-75) to 21.7% (2008-09).…”
