Abstract:

The objective of the present study was to estimate the prevalence of the use of special diets and to analyze the sociodemographic profile, nutritional status and eating habits of the Brazilian population that uses special diets. This is a cross-sectional study using data from the second National Food Survey 2017/2018 (n=45,689 individuals aged at least 10 years). The use of diets for hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, heart disease and weight loss were questioned. The prevalence of diet use was estimated according to sociodemographic characteristics and nutritional status, and logistic regression models were used to assess factors associated with dieting. All analyzes considered sample design and expansion factors. The prevalence of the use of special diets was 14.3%, with diets for weight loss (5.2%) and high blood pressure (4.6%) being the most prevalent. Women, the elderly, individuals with higher incomes and those with obesity were more likely to follow any type of special diet when compared to their peers.
