ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Identificar os padrões alimentares de adolescentes eutróficos e com excesso de peso. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal envolvendo 239 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, na faixa etária de 14 a 19 anos, alunos de uma escola pública da cidade de São Paulo, Brasil. Foram coletados dados antropométricos e registro alimentar de 4 dias. O estado nutricional foi avaliado pelo índice de massa corporal de acordo com os critérios de Must et al., e foi aplicada análise fatorial para a identificação dos padrões alimentares. RESULTADOS: Foram identificados quatro padrões alimentares: tradicional, urbano, saudável e junk food. O estado nutricional de eutrofia teve associação positiva com os padrões tradicional e urbano, o sobrepeso com os padrões saudável e junk food, e a obesidade associou-se negativamente com os padrões urbano, saudável e junk food. CONCLUSÃO: O padrão saudável foi encontrado entre os adolescentes com sobrepeso, evidenciando preocupação com o controle do peso e tentativa de mudança do hábito alimentar. Entre os obesos, a ocorrência do sub-relato provavelmente tenha influenciado o resultado das associações.


OBJECTIVE: This study identified the dietary patterns of normal weight and overweight adolescents. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study of 239 adolescents from a public school in São Paulo, Brazil; of both sexes, aged 14 to 19 years. Anthropometric data and 4-day dietary records were collected. Nutritional status was assessed by body mass index, according to the criteria established by Must et al. Factor analysis was used to identify dietary patterns. RESULTS: This assessment resulted in the identification of four dietary patterns: Traditional, Urban, Healthy, and Junk Food. Normal weight was positively associated with the Traditional and Urban patterns, and overweight was positively associated with the Healthy and Junk Food patterns. Lastly, obesity was negatively associated with the Urban, Healthy and Junk Food patterns. CONCLUSION: The Healthy pattern was found among overweight adolescents who were concerned with weight control and trying to change eating habits. Among the obese, the occurrence of underreporting probably influenced the outcome of the associations.
