“…For the first time, the evolution of the prevalence of food consumption variables and overweight and obesity in the population of Belo Horizonte was analyzed. Throughout the study period, the prevalence of both regular and recommended consumption of fruits and vegetables was higher than those observed in the set of Brazilian capitals [16,24]. In fact, the percentage of adults in Belo Horizonte who consumed fruits and vegetables as recommended in 2018 (29.2%) already reached a percentage higher than the goal proposed for Brazil until 2022, in the Plano de Ações Estratégicas para o Enfrentamento das Doenças Crônicas não Transmissíveis (Strategic Action Plan to Tackle Noncommunicable Diseases), of 24.3% [5].…”

Objective To analyze the time trend of sociodemographic characteristics and the prevalence of food consumption, overweight, and obesity variables among adults in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil, between 2006 and 2018. Methods A time series study involving data from the Sistema de Vigilância de Fatores de Risco e Proteção para Doenças Crônicas por Inquérito Telefônico (Vigitel, Surveillance System of Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey), between 2006 and 2018 in Belo Horizonte (n=25,443). The annual prevalence of the population’s sociodemographic characteristics (sex, age groups, and years of schooling), and risk and protective factors for chronic diseases related to food consumption and nutritional status were estimated. Prais-Winsten regression models were used to investigate the temporal variation of each variable. Results From 2006 to 2018, there was a significant increase in the age and educational level of the adult population of Belo Horizonte. In the same period, the prevalence of recommended consumption of fruits and vegetables increased (from 23.0% to 29.2%), while that of consumption of fat-rich meat and regular consumption of soft drinks decreased (respectively, from 41.9% to 38.0%; from 35.3% to 15.2%). In parallel, the prevalence of overweight and obesity increased (respectively, from 38.5% to 53.3%; from 9.8% to 17.2%). Conclusions An important change in the population’s sociodemographic profile was noted. There are also favorable changes regarding the investigated aspects of food consumption, without these being sufficient to prevent the significant increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity in the population.

“…A recent study showed a global increase in ultraprocessed food and drink product sales, mainly in LMIC [20]. In Brazil, there was an increase in consumption of fruits and vegetables (F&V) from 2008 to 2015, but it started to fall again in 2016 [21]. Concerning PA, 23% of global adult population is insufficiently physically active [12], and this rate is even higher in the Americas, reaching almost 50% of the adult population [17].…”

Temporal trends in behavioral risk and protective factors and their association with mortality rates: results from Brazil and Argentina

et al. 2020

Background Despite available information on trends in behavioral factors for Brazil and Argentina, little is known about the association of these trends with mortality. Understanding this association is important to avoid early deaths. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate temporal trends in behavioral risk and protective factors in Brazil and Argentina, and to assess their association with overall and cause-specific mortality rates. Methods Ecological study with data from two population surveys from Brazil and Argentina. Weighted prevalence of tobacco smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, fruit and vegetable consumption and physical activity for the 27 Brazilian state capitals and for the 23 Argentinean provinces were used as behavioral factors. Information on overall mortality as well as cardiovascular diseases and cancer mortality for the year 2015 was collected from national mortality banks of both countries. Estimated prevalence rates were used to describe trends in behavioral factors from 2006 to 2014 in Brazil, and from 2005 to 2013 in Argentina, while Pearson’s correlation and linear regression models were used to assess their association with overall and cause-specific mortality rates. Results Brazil presented improvements in behavioral risk and protective factors: sharp decrease in tobacco smoking prevalence (from 15 to 9%), increase in regular fruit and vegetable consumption (from 28 to 36%), and increase in physical activity (45 to 51%). In Argentina, results were more disappointing: small reduction in tobacco smoking (from 55 to 50%) and decrease in physical activity (from 55 to 45%). In both countries, excessive alcohol consumption remained stable, with increase only among women. The association between behavioral factors and mortality showed that in those Brazilian capitals with higher prevalence of regular consumption of fruits and vegetables, there were lower overall mortality rates. Stratification by gender revealed that significant results were only found among women. Conclusion Prevalence of regular consumption of fruits and vegetables increased in Brazilian capitals and was associated with lower overall mortality rate, suggesting a positive impact of Brazilian policies to improve dietary intake patterns on its population’s mortality. Approaches focusing on behavioral factors are especially needed in Argentina to reach similar results of those seen in Brazil.

“…O Brasil é o terceiro maior produtor mundial de frutas, estando atrás apenas da China e Índia, ocupando a vigésima-terceira posição entre os principais exportadores mundiais do setor. O consumo de frutas por adultos teve aumento significativo no período de 2006-2018 no percentual de consumo regular de frutas no Brasil (Organização das Nações Unidas para a Agricultura e Alimentação [FAO], 2016; Comércio exterior do Brasil [COMEX], 2017;Silva & Claro, 2019).…”

O mercado de polpa de frutas é um negócio promissor e lucrativo dentro do setor alimentício, fatores como praticidade e variedades de frutas no Brasil fez esse tipo de produto ser bastante apreciado pelo consumidor. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar as características físico-químicas e microbiológicas de polpas de frutas comercializadas na Região de Carajás-PA, e comparar com o padrão estabelecido pela legislação vigente. Para tanto, foram analisados cinco sabores (abacaxi, acerola, cajá, cupuaçu e goiaba) de quatro marcas de polpas de frutas (A, B, C e D) quanto ao valor de pH, sólidos solúveis (ºBrix), acideztulável e sólidos totais. As análises microbiológicas realizadas nas polpas de diferentes marcas foram coliformes a 45°C e Salmonella sp. Os resultados obtidos para um mesmo sabor, das diferentes marcas, foram submetidos à análise de variância e comparação de médias pelo teste de Tukey a 5% de significância. Os resultados verificados nas polpas de frutas das diferentes marcas indicaram ausência de microrganismos. A marca B das diferentes polpas foi a que melhor atendeu aos padrões exigidos; e os principais parâmetros em desacordo com a legislação são o teor de sólidos solúveis totais (ºBrix) e sólidos totais, o que sugere adequação das indústrias com relação ao processamento e controle de qualidade das polpas comercializadas na Região de Carajás-PA.
