Objective: To determine the association between the nutritional status and the presence of depressive symptoms in the Peruvian adult population in the year 2015. Methods: A secondary analysis of data from the Demographic Health Survey of 2015 (ENDES 2015) was carried out. The sample consisted of 26 463 people aged between 18 and 60 years old. Subjects were evaluated for nutritional status, according to Body Mass Index (BMI), which was grouped into four categories (Normal, BMI: 18.50-24.99; Overweight, BMI: 25.00-29.99; Obesity 1A, BMI: 30.00-32.49; Obesity 1B, BMI≥32.50). The presence of depressive symptoms was assessed by a score ≥ 10 points of the PHQ-9 (Patient Health Quetionaire 9) questions contained in the ENDES 2015’s Health Questionnaire. For bivariate and multivariate analysis, we stratified according to sex. Results: About 60%, 95%CI (59.4-61.4), of the participants presented overweight and obesity. As for depressive symptoms, about 6%, 95%CI (5.9-6.8), of the subjects had them. In the multivariate model, an association was found between the presence of depressive symptoms and category Obesity 1B (BMI≥32.50) only for women (PR = 1.30; 95%CI: 1.03-1.63). Conclusions: This study shows there is an association between nutritional status and depressive symptoms, where Obesity 1B (BMI≥32.50) women can present a higher prevalence of them. No association was found in men.
