Resumo
This article aims at estimating the prevalence
of adults engaging in protective and risk
health behaviors among members of private health
insurance plans. It was used a random sample of
individuals over the age of 18 living in the Brazilian
state capitals collected on 28,640 telephone
interviews in 2008. The results showed that among
males there was a high prevalence of the following
risk factors: tobacco, overweight, low fruit and
vegetable consumption, high meat with fat consumption
and alcohol drinking. Among females
we found a high prevalence of high blood pressure,
diabetes, dyslipidemia and osteoporosis. Men were
generally more physically active and women consumed
more fruit and vegetables. As more educated
males were lower was the prevalence of tobacco,
high blood pressure, but also a higher prevalence
of overweight, consumption of meat with
fat, dyslipidemia and lower number of yearly checkups
done. For females, tobacco smoking, overweight,
obesity, decreasing with schooling, and
consumption of fruit and vegetables, physical activity,
mammography and PAP test, increased with
schooling. The health insurance user population
constitutes about 26% of Brazilian people and the
current study aims to accumulate evidence for
health promotion actions by this public.
