estudo objetivou avaliar fatores associados às complicações metabólicas e alimentação em idosos da zona rural de Uberaba, Minas Gerais, norteados pelo Guia “10 passos para uma alimentação saudável para pessoas idosas” do Ministério da Saúde. Realizado inquérito domiciliar com 833 pessoas, 60 anos ou mais de idade, sem declínio cognitivo. Os dados foram coletados utilizando questionário de frequência alimentar, aferição de medidas antropométricas; submetidos à análise descritiva, taxa de prevalência e teste qui-quadrado (p<0,05). As complicações metabólicas foram associadas ao sexo feminino (p=0,001) e ao sobrepeso (p=0,006). Mulheres se adequaram a cinco passos: número de refeições, ingestão adequada de leite e carnes magras, consumo reduzido de refrigerantes, doces e sal, prática de atividade física, não fumar e não ingerir bebida alcoólica; enquanto os homens seguiam três passos: consumo adequado de cereais, de arroz com feijão e de água. Idosos com menos de 80 anos aderiram mais ao consumo de água. Três passos se associaram ao peso normal, dois à classificação sem risco para complicações metabólicas e nenhum à escolaridade. Conclui-se que a dieta dos idosos rurais não está adequada às recomendações de alimentação saudável do Ministério da Saúde.
