[Dietary assessment of the patients detected with hiperglycemia in the "Detection of Diabetes in Suspect Cases Campaign" in Viçosa, MG].
Arquivos Brasileiros de Endocrinologia e Metabologia 2006 December
The purpose of this work is to assess the current, qualitative and quantitative alimentary consumption of patients detected with hiperglycemia in the "Detection of Diabetes in Suspect Cases Campaign" in Viçosa, MG. 256 patients were detected with hiperglycemia in 2001; however, 156 (60.9%) were assessed in 2004. The remaining people were dead, had changed their address, did not accept to participate in the study or did not have diagnosed diabetes. The hiperglycemic patients answered an alimentary frequency questionnaire for assessing their dietary intake and their usual diet recall, both previously tested in pilot-population. The most daily consumed foods were vegetable oil (99%), bean (94%), rice (90%), artificial sweetener (80%), leaf vegetables (63%), milk (61%), and French bread (54%). Most of the patients said they avoid sugar, sugary foods and animal fats. The largest percentiles of nutrients inadequacy happened for energy (85%), fibers (87%), calcium (94%), carbohydrates (82%), monounsaturated fats (91%) and proteins (58%). These last three happened in relation to total energy intake values. The current data allowed us to know about the alimentary habits of these people and also to stimulate nutrition intakes, being useful to the nutritional counseling, suggesting specific orientations in order to provide a more appropriate feeding, contributing to better health conditions and well-being.
