Resumo: Objective: To analyze the consumption of ultra-processed foods among children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and its association with nutritional status. Methods: Cross-sectional study of 29 children conducted in 2017 in São Luís, Maranhão, Brazil. A semistructured questionnaire was used with parents or caregivers to obtain sociodemographic information. The nutritional status was assessed based on body mass index/age and height/age. The food consumption was assessed using a 24h recall, which was used to estimate the percentage of caloric contribution and the mean of the foods consumed according to the level of processing. Student’s t test with a significance level of 5% was used to compare the consumption of ultra-processed foods in relation to the nutritional status. Results: Overweight was observed in 55.2% (n=16) of the children and the consumption of ultra-processed foods was responsible for 28% (560 kcal/day) of caloric contribution. Overweight children consumed a higher mean percentage of ultra-processed foods than those who were not overweight (34.2% vs. 19.4%, p=0.009). Fruit consumption represented only 4.3% (74.6 kcal) of total caloric contribution and vegetables were the least consumed whole foods among children. Conclusion: Whole foods or minimally processed foods were the most consumed food among the analyzed children. However, the higher consumption of ultra-processed foods was associated with overweight in children with ASD.

Métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal, en São Luís, Maranhão, Brasil, con una muestra de 29 niños en 2017. Se utilizó un cuestionario semi-estructurado que ha sido aplicado a los padres o responsables para obtener las variables sociodemográficas. El estado nutricional ha sido evaluado por los indicadores del índice de masa corporal/edad y estatura/edad. Se obtuvo el consumo alimentario a través del recordatorio de 24 horas del cual ha sido calculado el porcentaje de la contribución calórica y la media de los alimentos consumidos según el nivel de procesamiento. Para comparar el consumo de los ultraprocesados según el estado nutricional se utilizó la prueba t de Student con el nivel de significación del 5%. Resultados: Se verificó el exceso de peso en el 55,2% (n=16) de los niños y el consumo de alimentos ultraprocesados ha sido responsable por el 28% (560 kcal/día) de la contribución calórica. Niños con exceso de peso han consumido la mayor media percentual de alimentos ultraprocesados que los sin el exceso de peso (34,2% versus 19,4%, p=0,009). El consumo de frutas ha representado solamente el 4,3% (74,6 kcal) de la contribución calórica total y las hortalizas han sido los alimentos in natura menos consumidos por los niños. Conclusión: Alimentos in natura o los muy poco procesados fueron la base de la alimentación de los niños estudiados. Sin embargo, el mayor consumo de alimentos ultraprocesados se asoció con el exceso de peso de los niños con TEA.Objetivo: Analisar o consumo de alimentos ultraprocessados entre crianças com transtorno do espectro do autismo (TEA) e sua associação com o estado nutricional.
