ABSTRACT
The measurement of dietary intake is complex. The analysis methods, when used incorrectly, can distort reality generating a waste of resources and opportunities to intervene appropriately at the individual and population level. The intake records of seven consecutive days of 167 subjects were analyzed using the methods proposed by the University of Iowa and compared with the values of reference of dietary intake (DRI's). The variation in energy consumption compared with recommendations was 15%. Ninety two % of the men and 80% of the women's consumed protein above the recommendation (RDA). The average consumption of total fiber was half of the recommendation and all the people had intakes below the RDA. Seventeen % consumed total fats above the RDA regardless of differences in body mass index (BMI). The intake of saturated fat was twice that of polyunsaturated fat. The consumption of monounsaturated, polyunsaturated and saturated fat also did not change for different BMI. The socioeconomic level was associated to the intake of proteins and fats. It is evident that the diet is not healthy and represents a risk factor for cancer development, cardiovascular events and other chronic illnesses.
RESUMEN
La medición del consumo dietario es compleja. Además los métodos de análisis utilizados incorrectamente pueden distorsionar la realidad generando una pérdida de recursos y de oportunidades para intervenir adecuadamente a nivel individual y poblacional. Se analizaron los registros de consumo dietario de siete días consecutivos de 167 personas adultas, utilizando los métodos propuestos por la Universidad de Iowa y los valores de referencia de ingesta dietaria (DRI`s). La variación del consumo de energía alrededor de la recomendación, es de 15%. El 92% de los hombres y 80% de las mujeres consume proteínas por encima de la recomendación (RDA). El consumo de fibra total es la mitad de la recomendación y el 100% esta por debajo de la RDA. El 17% consume grasas totales por encima de la RDA sin diferencia por el índice de masa corporal (IMC). El consumo de grasa saturada es dos veces el de grasa poli insaturada. El consumo de grasas mono insaturadas, poli insaturadas y saturadas, no es diferencial por IMC. El nivel socioeconómico está asociado al consumo de proteínas y grasas. Es evidente que la dieta no es saludable y un factor de riesgo para el desarrollo de cáncer, eventos cardiovasculares y otras enfermedades crónicas.
