The objective was to test the hypothesis of an association between light or moderate alcohol consumption, in comparison with no consumption or excessive consumption and the metabolic syndrome in men and women in Salvador-Bahia, Brazil. A cross-sectional study was carried out, with men and women, age ≥ 20 years. Alcohol consumption was classified into three categories: excessive use, including three or more doses per day or 21 or more doses per week (1 dose corresponding to 14g of ethanol), light / moderate use - consumption below that described and without consumption, where abstainers were those who did not consume in the last 12 months. The final sample resulted in 1,333 individuals. In logistic regression, the adjusted prevalence rate of extreme alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome for women was 1.35 (95% CI 0.95-1.82). For men, the adjusted prevalence ratio was 1.17 (95% CI 0.77-1.71). Confusing factors, which were presented with a statistically significant association, were marital status for both sexes and physical inactivity for men. Among women, the tendency was to make the association between the most abstinent, useful consumers and MS. Our data raise the question of marital status as a probable cardiovascular risk factor; a variable that can be further investigated in future studies.
