OBJECTIVE:
to describe the food intake among individuals with high blood pressure and diabetes in a municipality in the south of Brazil.
METHODS:
a cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in Nova Boa Vista-RS, Brazil, from June to September 2013; food intake was collected from the questionnaire of the Food and Nutrition Surveillance System (SISVAN) and from an adaptation based on the 2008 Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population.
RESULTS:
422 individuals were included in the study (≥18 years old); the food that presented the highest recommended intake frequencies were raw salad (60.7%), fruits (73.0%), dairy products (61.4%), fried food (57.3%), snacks (66.4%) and soft drinks (76.3%); processed meat and sweets presented the highest non-recommended intake frequencies, with 34.8 and 23.9%, respectively.
CONCLUSION:
food intake among the population studied seems to be in accordance to the recommended frequencies, especially among women.
