Details
Summary: The hypothesis that the intake of ultra-processed foods compromises dietary quality and increases the risk of obesity has been posed and was demonstrated in a few countries but still needs to be tested in most countries. This project aims to study patterns of ultraprocessed food consumption in Portugal, its sociodemographic determinants, and its influence on nutrient profile and obesity. In addition, it will allow the incorporation of Portugal in one international research program coordinated by the Brazilian research center NUPENS/USP and involving Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, UK and US. It will involve the analysis of food intake data and weight and height measurements
collected by the most recent Portuguese dietary survey, the IAN-AF 2015-2016. The methodology will start by data harmonization of
sociodemographic, anthropometric and dietary variables. Food items will then be classified according to the degree of processing by using the NOVA food classification.
