Background: Overweight and obesity is associated with increased consumption of industrialized foods (IF). Lately, the neck perimeter (NP) has been identified as a good body fat indicator and specially of health risk. Therefore, our objective is to evaluate the association between energy consumption of IF and NC in Peruvians aged 15 to 65. Methods: A secondary analysis of the database of the Latin American Study of Nutrition and Health (ELANS) conducted in Peru was performed. The variables of interest were power consumption of IF and NP, to evaluate its association, a crude and adjusted for confounding variables Poisson regression was performed and the prevalence ratio (PR) was calculated. The analyses were performed at a 95% confidence interval. Results: The mean NC was 35,4 cm (SD: 3,6) and the median consumption of IF was 372,4 kcal (227,6-554,1). Those in the second and upper tertile of energy consumption of IF have a higher probability of increased NC (PR: 1,05; IC:1,00-1,10, p=0,042; PR: 1,06; IC:1,01-1,12, p=0,017, respectively) in relation to those who were in the first tertile. Conclusion: As the tertile of energy consumption of IF increases, the risk of increased NC increases in Peruvians aged 15 to 65. It is important to identify strategies to implement public policies that improve the quality of IF and reduce the risk of increased NC.
