Abstract: Objetivo: Determinar la asociación entre el número de comidas durante un día y el IMC (Índice de Masa Corporal) de adolescentes y adultos peruanos del Estudio Latinoamericano de Nutrición y Salud (ELANS).
Material y métodos: Análisis secundario de datos a partir del estudio transversal ELANS. La variable dependiente fue IMC (kg/m2) y la variable de exposición número de comidas al día, medida como frecuencia de comidas al día, promedio de comidas principales, omisión comidas principales, frecuencia de entrecomidas al día, omisión de entrecomidas y consume entrecomidas. Se realizó una regresión lineal cruda y ajustada (por: sexo, edad, región, nivel socioeconómico, estado civil, kilocalorías y nivel de actividad física), para evaluar la asociación entre número de comidas e IMC con un nivel de confianza del 95%.
Resultados: Se analizaron datos de 1092 personas, el promedio de edad fue 34,2 + 13,6 y de IMC fue 26,7 + 4,9. En el modelo ajustado, el IMC disminuyó 0,33, por cada comida adicional (p=0,019), y 1,12 por cada comida principal adicional (p=0,013). Mientras que las personas que omiten comidas principales presentaron 0,74 más de IMC que las que no los omiten (p=0,016).
Conclusiones: Se encontró asociación entre el número de comidas y el IMC. A un mayor número de comidas se encontró menor IMC, principalmente debido a las comidas principales.
Objective: To determine the association between the frequency of meals in the day and the BMI of Peruvian adolescents and adults of the Latin American Nutrition and Health Study (ELANS). Material and methods: Secondary data analysis from the ELANS cross-sectional study. The dependent variable was BMI (kg / m2) and the exposure variable was number of meals per day, measured as frequency of meals per day, average of main meals, omission of main meals, frequency of meals per day, omission of meals, and consumption of inter-meals. A crude and adjusted linear regression was performed (by: sex, age, region, socioeconomic level, marital status, kilocalories and level of physical activity), to evaluate the association between number of meals and BMI with a confidence level of 95%. Results: Data from 1092 people were analyzed, the average age was 34,2 + 13,6 and the BMI was 26,7 + 4,9. In the adjusted model, the BMI decreased 0,33 for each additional meal (p=0,019), and 1,12 for each additional main meal (p=0,013). While the people who skipped main meals had 0,74 more BMI than those who did not skip them (p=0,016). Conclusions: An association was found between the number of meals and the BMI. At a higher number of meals, a lower BMI was found, mainly due to the main meals.
