Resultados: Los alimentos tuvieron una asociación directacon ingesta de cereales y tubérculos con la convivencia fami-liar (p=0.037; p=0.01 respectivamente), las menestras conlugar de consumo de alimentos (p=0.002) y convivencia fa-miliar (p=0.001), la ingesta de carnes con lugar de consumode alimentos (p= 0.006), consumo de alcohol (p= 0.028) y cambios económicos en el hogar (p=0.033). La ingesta defrutas con la actividad física (p=0.021), la ingesta de verdu-ras con la convivencia familiar (p= 0.003), lugar de consumode alimentos (p= 0.001), consumo de alcohol (p=0.049) yhoras de sueño (p=0.036). La ingesta de aceites vegetalescon la convivencia familiar (p=0.02) y los alimentos ultrapro-cesados con el lugar de consumo (p=0.002) y consumo de al-cohol (p=0.044) (AU)
