Objective: Evaluate the association between the level of physical activity (PA) and the frequency of consumption of meals (MF) in the Peruvian population aged 15 to 65 years. Materials and methods: Secondary analysis of the ELANS cross-sectional study collected information from the Peruvian population living in urban areas. The level of PA was estimated through the IPAQ and for the MF, the data obtained from the 24-hour recall (two non-consecutive days) were used. To evaluate the association between the level of PA and the MF, a Poisson regression adjusted for sex, age, marital status, socioeconomic level, region, kilocalorie adequacy, nutritional status (BMI), and plausible energy consumption report was performed. Results: Data from 1092 people were analyzed. The largest proportion of the sample performed light PA (56.2%) and only 12.8% vigorous. The adjusted model showed that those who performed moderate and vigorous PA were 19% and 54% more likely to consume 5 or more meals a day, compared to those who performed light PA, and performing vigorous PA increased the probability by 13 % of consuming dinner. Those who performed moderate and vigorous PA had a 7% and 19% higher consumption between meals than individuals who did light PA. Conclusion: The prevalence of 5 or more meals a day was higher in those who performed moderate and vigorous PA compared to those who performed light PA.
