Results: the sample was composed of 53 women with a mean age of 54.51 ± 4.24 years and BMI of 25.97 ± 5.94 kg/m². In the sociodemographic variables, statistically significant differences in origin, occupation, and income were observed. Daily consumption showed significance for vitamins A, C, and zinc. In adults, vitamins A and C were in accordance with recommendations, while in the elderly a low intake of vitamin E and selenium was observed. The relation between vitamin E and origin was significant. Conclusion: patients demonstrated low consumption of vitamins A, C, and zinc. Therefore, there is a need for increased consumption of foods rich in antioxidants in order to contribute to the prevention of joint injury and loss of rheumatic function, thus, improving quality of life of patients.
