GABE, Kamila Tiemann e JAIME, Patricia Constante. Dietary practices in relation to the Dietary guidelines for the brazilian population: associated factors among Brazilian adults, 2018. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2020, vol.29, n.1, e2019045. Epub 10-Mar-2020. ISSN 1679-4974. http://dx.doi.org/10.5123/s1679-49742020000100019.
Objective:
to describe the adequacy of dietary practices in relation to the Dietary guidelines for the brazilian population, and to analyze associated factors among Brazilian adults.
Methods:
this was a cross-sectional study using a convenience sample of 900 adults (18-60 years old) resident in Brazil; a dietary practices scale (24 items; score 0-72) based on the Guideline recommendations was administered using an online panel; multiple linear regression analysis was used.
Results:
participants’ mean age was 33.5 years and 52.0% of them were women; the mean score on the scale was 36.4 points (SD=8.5); scores were directly associated with age (linear trend p<0.001), and were higher among people from the North-Northeast regions (37.8), compared to those from the Midwest-Southern regions (35.8) (T-test p=0.001).
Conclusion:
the adequacy of dietary practices in keeping with Guideline recommendations was associated with age and region of residence.
