Introduction: Knowledge about the food profile, nutritional and metabolic status of a society is
important, as it shows the influences that dietary patterns can cause, presenting persistent inadequacies
that are related to strong associations for risk factors for chronic diseases and other related factors. to
poor quality of life. Objective: To evaluate the association of dietary intake with anthropometric and
metabolic parameters in adult patients treated at the nutrition clinic of a university hospital. Methods:
Cross-sectional, observational, quantitative and descriptive study based on data collection from the
medical records of adult patients, of both sexes, with excess weight, and any clinical diagnosis,
performed in the year 2021. Sociodemographic data, lifestyle habits were collected. life, clinical
diagnosis, dietary, anthropometric, metabolic. For statistical analysis, in all tests applied, a significance
level p<0.05 was adopted. Results: It was observed that women, sedentary and with excess body mass
prevailed in the research, mostly obese, arterial hypertension (47.1%) and hepatic steatosis (35.7%) were
the most frequent underlying diseases, men consumed more calories compared to women, predominant
consumption of a high-protein, normoglycemic and normolipidic diet, prevalence of low fiber
consumption (75%), most had hyperglycemia (70.8%) and pre-diabetes (69.2), considering Hb1Ac (
85.2%) had hyperglycemia, the inadequacy of the lipid profile was significantly higher with no
difference between men and women, there was an association between hypertriglyceridemia and higher
levels of non-HDL-cholesterol, active men consumed more calories and fiber compared to sedentary
men, no there was a correlation with statistical significance between the quantitative variables analyzed.
Conclusion: Most patients were women, with the presence of excess body mass, the patients had There
was a prevalence of hyperglycemia and pre-diabetes, and men with higher calorie consumption than
women and physically active consume more fiber and calories compared to those who are inactive. In
addition, there were lipid profile inadequacies in both genders.
