“…Although the aetiology of MetS is complex, some major environmental risk factors are wellknown, and include diet [8][9][10][11][12], physical activity [13] or tobacco smoking [14]. While the role of dietary patterns (e.g.…”

“…While the role of dietary patterns (e.g. vegetarian or Mediterranean diets [10][11][12]15]) on the risk of onset of MetS has been thoroughly investigated, no studies have taken into consideration the mode of food production (i.e. organic or conventional farming practices) in the association between diet and metabolic status.…”

“…The optional answers were as: "i do not eat", "daily", "Weekly" and "Monthly" intake. To equalise responses, the frequency of food intake during the week or month was converted to daily intake, and the daily intake of food items for each individual was determined [18]. Validity and reliability of the questionnaire were confirmed by experts, as well as in previous studies with an acceptable coefficient (Cronbach's alpha, 0.82).…”

Background. obesity is a major health problem that can lead to chronic illness. Objectives. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of determinants of obesity and overweight in middle-aged women in the city of ahvaz. Material and methods. This cross-sectional study was carried out on 600 urban women between 30-65 years of age that were invited to the health Centres of ahvaz, iran, from april to november 2018. a randomised, multi-stage cluster sampling was used, and data was collected using demographic information, a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) and an international Physical activity Questionnaire (iPaQ). general obesity was considered as a body mass index (BMi) ≥ 30 kg/m². Results. The mean age of participants was 38.9 ± 8 years of age. in total, 73% were overweight and/or obese. The incidence of obesity was higher with illiterate, housewives and older women (p < 0.05). obesity had a significant positive correlation with family size, the number of obese persons in the family and quantity of daily snacks (p < 0.05), as well as a reverse correlation with consuming oral contraceptive. There was relationship between BMi and consumption of red meat, fast food and snacks (p < 0.05), although in the general score of the food frequency questionnaire, the relations were not significant. Conclusions. Prevention education programmes for achieving higher education, lesser family dimension, changes in lifestyle, including having a healthier nutritional diet, consuming the less fast food and red meat and more fruits and vegetables are recommended.

“…International federations, such as the American Cancer Society, the American Diabetes Association, and the American Heart Association propose rigorous constraint of sugar-added beverages in people with diabetes [24]. On the other hand, according to a national investigation, one-third of Iranian adults have MetS [25] while the rate is extremely higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients by up to 84.1% of the population [26] which warns us about considerable cardiovascular outcomes in near future.…”

Purpose Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) containing high amount of added sugars have increased over the last decades. Due to increased risk of cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, we designed a study to assess the association between SSBs and metabolic syndrome, a collection of cardiovascular risk factors, in these patients. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed on T2DM adults (N = 157). Participants had no serious disease or insulin treatment. SSBs records were obtained from a validated food frequency questionnaire. Metabolic syndrome status was extracted from biochemical and anthropometric measurements. Subjects risk factors were compared based on their usual SSBs consumption. Results About half of participants consumed at least one serving of SSBs (Mean intake: 145.6 mL/d) on a weekly basis. Men and women had a similar SSBs pattern. Demographic and anthropometric characteristics were identical in both groups. Higher SSBs intake (≥ 0.5 vs <0.5 serving/ week) was positively associated with hypertension (
