Resumo: The aim of this study was to verify the consumption of dietary supplements by gymgoers. To this end, 430 practitioners of physical activities of both genders, aged between 18 and 79 years old, attending all gyms in a municipality in Minas Gerais, participated. Data collection took place through the application of standardized questionnaires. Data tabulation was performed with Epi Info 7.2 and for data analysis the programs Excel® 2010 and BioEstat® 5.3 were used. It was found that 50.93% of practitioners used nutritional supplements, predominantly consumption among men (66.21%). Among users, 80.37% said they knew about food supplements. The most used supplements among men were those rich in proteins (59.62%) and creatine (35.68%) and among women were proteins (25.81%) and natural herbal medicines (13.36%). The majority (70%) of practitioners reported consuming supplements without guidance from a specialized professional. It is concluded that the consumption of food supplements is high, without adequate professional guidance, by gymgoers. Therefore, we see as essential the role of nutritionists in gyms, working together with Physical Education professionals, as they are qualified to prescribe and monitor the use of supplements, thus making their consumption effective and safe for practitioners of physical activity.

Para ello participaron 430 practicantes de actividades físicas de ambos sexos, con edades comprendidas entre los 18 y 79 años, que asisten a todos los gimnasios de una ciudad de Minas Gerais. La recolección de datos se realizó mediante la aplicación de cuestionarios estandarizados. La tabulación de datos se realizó con Epi Info 7.2 y para el análisis de datos se utilizaron los programas Excel® 2010 y BioEstat® 5.3. Se encontró que el 50,93% de los practicantes utilizaba complementos nutricionales, predominantemente el consumo entre los hombres (66,21%). Entre los usuarios, el 80,37% dijo tener conocimientos sobre complementos alimenticios. Los suplementos más utilizados entre los hombres fueron los ricos en proteínas (59,62%) y creatina (35,68%) y entre las mujeres fueron las proteínas (25,81%) y los medicamentos naturales a base de hierbas (13,36%). La mayoría (70%) de los médicos informaron consumir suplementos sin la guía de un profesional especializado. Se concluye que el consumo de complementos alimenticios es elevado, sin una adecuada orientación profesional, por parte de los asistentes al gimnasio. Por ello, vemos como fundamental el papel de los nutricionistas en los gimnasios, trabajando en conjunto con los profesionales de Educación Física, ya que están capacitados para prescribir y controlar el uso de suplementos, haciendo así su consumo efectivo y seguro para los practicantes de actividad física.O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar o consumo de suplementos alimentares por frequentadores de academias. Para tanto, participaram 430 praticantes de atividades físicas de ambos os sexos, com idade entre 18 a 79 anos, frequentadores de todas as academias de um município de Minas Gerais. A coleta de dados ocorreu com a aplicação de questionários padronizados. A tabulação de dados foi realizada com o Epi Info 7.2 e para a análise dos dados foram utilizados os programas, Excel® 2010 e BioEstat® 5.3. Verificou-se que 50,93% dos praticantes usavam suplementos nutricionais, sendo predominante o consumo entre os homens (66,21%). Entre os usuários, 80,37% disseram ter conhecimento sobre suplementos alimentares. Os suplementos mais utilizados entre os homens foram aqueles ricos em proteínas (59,62%) e creatina (35,68%) e entre as mulheres foram as proteínas (25,81%) e os naturais fitoterápicos (13,36%). A maioria (70%) dos praticantes relatou consumir suplementos sem orientação de um profissional especializado. Conclui-se que é elevado o consumo de suplementos alimentares, sem orientação profissional adequada, por frequentadores de academias. Sendo assim, percebemos como indispensável a atuação de nutricionistas nas academias de ginástica, trabalhando juntamente com os profissionais da Educação Física, pois são habilitados para prescreverem e acompanharem o uso dos suplementos, tornando assim o consumo eficaz e seguro para os praticantes de atividade física.Research, Society and Development2021-08-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1887710.33448/rsd-v10i10.18877Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 10; e374101018877Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 10; e374101018877Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 10; e3741010188772525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/18877/16931Copyright (c) 2021 Márcio da Conceição Vieira Júnior; Rosana Passos Cambraia; Assis do Carmo Pereira Júniorhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVieira Júnior, Márcio da ConceiçãoCambraia, Rosana Passos Pereira Júnior, Assis do Carmo2021-10-02T21:49:16Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/18877Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:38:54.424542Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
