Resumo: | ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to assess the health and nutritional status of children under five years of age and to associate the quality of the foods consumed with the Bolsa Família Program in a city located in the Brazilian semi-arid region. MethodA total of 189 children from a sample of 411 households in the city of João Câmara (RN) were assessed. Weight and height were measured and socioeconomic and food habits were determined with the use of questionnaires. The nutritional status of the children was determined with the weight-for-age, height-for-age and weight-for-height indicators. Univariate analyses were done and bivariate and multivariate logistic regression models were constructed to test the hypothesis of the study. ResultsOf the studied children, 4.3% were underweight, 9.9% were stunted and 14.0% were overweight. The nutritional status of children whose families receive the Bolsa Família financial aid was not significantly different from those whose families do not receive the aid. In both groups, the consumption of fruits and non-starchy vegetables was low and similar. Children from families who receive the aid were 3 times more likely to eat junk food (OR 3.06 - CI 1.35-6.95). ConclusionThe food intake patterns of this population indicate that they are at food and nutritional risk. Health professionals need to intervene in order to promote healthier eating habits. |

MétodosForam avaliadas 189 crianças, a partir de uma amostragem de 411 domicílios do município de João Câmara (RN). Foram realizadas medidas de peso e altura, e levantadas às condições socioeconômicas e determinação dos hábitos alimentares. Para o diagnóstico nutricional das crianças foram utilizados os indicadores Peso/Idade, Altura/Idade e Peso/Altura. Análises univariadas foram realizadas e modelos bivariados e multivariados de regressão logística foram construídos para testar a hipótese do estudo. ResultadosO déficit de peso foi de 4,3% e o de altura de 9,9%, e o excesso de peso de 14,0%. Não foram encontradas diferenças estatísticas entre o estado nutricional de crianças beneficiárias e não beneficiárias do Programa Bolsa Família. Em ambos os grupos, os consumos de frutas, verduras e legumes foram baixos e semelhantes entre si. As crianças do programa bolsa família têm risco três vezes maior de consumir guloseimas (OR3,06 - IC 1,35-6,95). ConclusãoOs resultados do padrão de consumo alimentar dessa população apontam para uma situação de “risco alimentar e nutricional”, e exigem uma intervenção por parte dos profissionais de saúde para a promoção da alimentação saudável.Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-08-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9353Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 23 No. 2 (2010): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 23 Núm. 2 (2010): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 23 n. 2 (2010): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9353/6727Copyright (c) 2023 Silvia Regina Dias Médici SALDIVA, Luiz Fernando Ferraz SILVA, Paulo Hilário Nascimento SALDIVAhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDias Médici SALDIVA, Silvia Regina Ferraz SILVA, Luiz FernandoNascimento SALDIVA, Paulo Hilário 2023-08-25T18:34:54Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/9353Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-08-25T18:34:54Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false |
