Resumo: The objective of this study was to investigate the factors associated with overweight in adults and the frequencies of these factors. The sample comprised 101 adults, all aged ≥ 18 years, 75 (74.0%) females and 26 (26.0%) males, registered at a Family Health Center (FHC) in the town of Jequié, and distributed proportionally throughout the FHC’s seven sub-areas. Patients were defined as overweight if their body mass index (BMI) was ≥ 25kg/m². The proportion of overweight people was calculated for the whole sample and for each of the associated variables (age, sex, occupation, educational level, number of meals per day, smoking, alcoholism, arterial hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and habitual level of physical activity). The chi-square test was applied to test associations between the variables and the proportion of overweight to a significance level of 5% (p ≤ 0.05). the overall frequency of overweight was 28.0%, and this was more prevalent only among individuals who do not consume alcoholic beverages, although the comparison between those with and without hypertension was borderline (p = 0.052). The results of this study suggest a need for further investigation into the effect of alcoholic beverages on the nutritional status of adults and for implementation of nutritional vigilance strategies at this FHC, with special attention given to hypertense patients.

O desenho foi transversal em amostra de 101 adultos ≥ 18 anos de idade, cadastrados e distribuídos proporcionalmente entre as sete microáreas da USF, sendo 75 (74,0%) do sexo feminino e 26 (26,0%) do masculino. Com sobrepeso foram considerados aqueles que apresentaram índice de massa corporal (IMC) ≥ 25kg/m². Calculou-se a freqüência do sobrepeso no total e por variáveis associadas (idade, sexo, ocupação, escolaridade, número de refeições diárias, tabagismo, etilismo, hipertensão arterial, diabetes, dislipidemias e nível de atividade física habitual - NAFH). As associações foram verificadas utilizando o teste do qui-quadrado, ao nível de significância de 5% (p ≤ 0,05). A freqüência do sobrepeso foi de 28,0%, sendo mais prevalente apenas em indivíduos que não consomem bebidas alcoólicas, embora a comparação entre hipertensos e não hipertensos tenha se apresentado limítrofe (p = 0,052). Os resultados deste estudo sugerem outras investigações sobre o efeito do consumo de bebidas alcoólicas sobre o estado nutricional de adultos e implementação de estratégias de vigilância nutricional na USF, com atenção especial nos hipertensos.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
