Nutritional Food Insecurity (NFI) is the decrease in regular access to necessary safe and nutritious foods to lead an active and healthy life. In Peru about 15.5 million people have NFI, to adapt to this situation individuals consume foods of lower cost and low nutritional quality. The confluence between NFI, socioeconomic determinants and lifestyle can be reflected in the greater probability of simultaneously developing several metabolic alterations (central obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension and hyperglycemia) called Risk of Metabolic Syndrome (RMS), which is associated with a higher incidence of chronic diseases and would place a heavy burden on the health system. The objective of this study is to determine the association between NFI and other factors with RMS in adult women between 18 and 59 years of age from the Noncommunicable Diseases Program in North Lima. NFI data, RMS, sociodemographic and economic data, diet quality and physical activity were obtained, using the Latin American and Caribbean Food Security Scale (ELCSA), the FINDRISK test and the household and individual characteristics questionnaire. The Chi square test was used, and risk factors were examined using the odds ratio (OR) test. 96.8 percent of women had some level of NFI: 34.9 severe, 33.9 moderate and 28 mild. The prevalence of women with high and very high RMS was 59.2 percent. The association between IAN and RMS was significant (p<0.05). The risk factor associated with lower RMS was mild NFI (OR: 9.41, CI: 3.92-22.55). The RMS is associated with the NFI in women attended in the Programs of Noncommunicable Diseases of North Lima.
