Resumo
Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the most important cause of death in Brazil and the world, and it is known that poor diet and physical inactivity are strongly associated with its prevalence. However, the relationship between the risk factors for CVDs with the food intake and physical activity is not fully clarified. Objective: Identify the prevalence of risk factors for CVDs in active and inactive adults and elderly people from a Brazilian city and associate them with food intake. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with the people attended by the Family Health Strategy of Santo Antônio de Goiás (GO), Brazil. Socioedemographic (gender, age, marital status, education and individual income), lifestyle (smoking and drinking), blood pressure, physical activity, anthropometric [body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) and body fat percentage (BF%)] and dietary intake data were collected and evaluated. Categorical variables were expressed as relative frequency. Pearson’s qui-square test was used to compare both the prevalence of risk factors for CVDs as the adequacy of food consumption between active and inactive people. Independent-samples t test and Mann-Whitney test were used to compare de anthropometric variables, blood pressure and dietary intake between active and inactive individuals. Binary logistic regression was used to determine the association of BMI, WC, BF% and hypertension with dietary intake, adjusted and not adjusted for age group and sex. P < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: Of the 83 participants, 61.4% were active and there was no difference in the prevalence of risk factors for CVDs, anthropometric data, blood pressure, estimated energy requirements and energy and nutrients intake between active and inactive (p ≥ 0,05). Besides, there was no difference in the prevalence of energy and nutrients intake adequacy between groups (p ≥ 0.05). It was observed in the inactive people that the total (OR: 1.021, p = 0.035) and saturated (OR: 1.060, p = 0.033) fat consumption increased the odds of being overweight, with no relationship between dietary intake and risk factors for CVDs when considering all participants or active subjects (p ≥ 0,05). The adjustment for age group and sex did not influence the test results. Conclusions: There was no difference in the prevalence of risk factors for CVDs between active and inactive people, but the consumption of total and saturated fat increased the chance of overweight among inactive subjects.
