ABSTRACT Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of baru nuts supplementation on body composition and metabolic profile in adults with type 2 diabetes. Methods: This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover trial with 30 adults with type 2 diabetes. The assay had two periods of 12 weeks each, with a washout period of 12 weeks between treatments. The subjects were randomized and received the two treatments in alternate periods: supplementation of 30g baru nuts or placebo. Anthropometry, body composition, blood pressure, blood sampling, food intake, and physical activity data were analyzed. Results: Baru nut intake reduced waist circumference (p=0.032), compared to placebo group. In the intra-group analysis, baru nut intake reduced total cholesterol (p=0.012) and LDL-c (p=0.017). Conclusion: The daily intake of baru nuts improved abdominal adiposity. Therefore, these nuts should be included in the diet to improve the health status of adults with type 2 diabetes.

RESUMO: Objetivo: Avaliar o efeito da suplementação com amêndoa de baru sobre a composição corporal e perfil metabólico de adultos com diabetes Mellitus tipo 2. Métodos: Este é um estudo randomizado, placebo-controlado, crossover com 30 adultos com diabetes Mellitus tipo 2. O ensaio clínico foi dividido em dois períodos de 12 semanas cada, com um washout de 12 semanas entre os tratamentos. Os sujeitos foram randomizados e receberam dois tratamentos em períodos alternativos: suplementação com 30 g de amêndoa de baru ou placebo. Foram coletados dados referentes à antropometria, composição corporal, pressão arterial, amostras de sangue, ingestão de alimentos e práticas de atividade física. Resultados: A ingestão de amêndoa de baru reduziu a circunferência da cintura (p=0,032), em comparação com o grupo placebo. Na análise intragrupo, a ingestão de amêndoa de baru também reduziu o colesterol total (p=0,012) e LDL-c (p=0,017). Conclusão: A ingestão diária de amêndoa de baru melhorou a adiposidade abdominal, portanto, deve ser incluída na dieta para a melhora do estado de saúde de adultos com diabetes Mellitus tipo 2.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the effect of curcumin supplementation on the body compositions and biochemical parameters of Brazilian women with high waist circumferences. Materials and methods: This is a blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial conducted in 2016 with 35 Brazilian women with high waist circumference (WC). In total, 80 participants were randomized [38 in the placebo group (PG) and 42 in the supplemented group (SG)], but at the end of the protocol, 20 individuals in the PG and 15 in the SG were evaluated. The sample consumed one capsule of curcumin (500 mg/day) (Curcumin C3 Complex®) or a placebo for 90 days. Body weight, height, body mass index, WC, body fat, fat free mass, fasting glucose (FG), lipid profile [triglycerides (TGs), total cholesterol (TC), HDL-c and LDL-c], physical activity level and food intake (energy, carbohydrate, total fat and protein) data were evaluated before and after the intervention. Results: Curcumin supplementation reduced body mass (p < 0.040) but did not alter other anthropometric parameters or body composition (p ≥ 0.050). In relation to the biochemical profile, the SG saw reductions in FG (p < 0.001), TGs (p < 0.001) and TC (p = 0.001) compared with the PG. At the baseline and during the intervention, the practice of physical activity and food intake did not differ between the SG and PG (p ≥ 0.050). Conclusion: Curcumin supplementation improved the blood glucose and lipid profile of Brazilian women with high WC, without altering body composition. New studies with larger sample sizes and longer durations are important for identifying more robust data regarding the proposal of this work.

Introducción: Las alteraciones en el perfil lipídico, glucémico y hemodinámico pueden aumentar el riesgo de enfermedades crónicas y mortalidad. Objetivo: Asociar los parámetros metabólicos, antropométricos y el consumo de alimentos de mujeres adultas brasileñas. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal con 34 mujeres brasileñas de 20 a 59 años. Se recogieron datos sobre el consumo de alcohol, tabaco, ejercicio, presión arterial, antropometría y consumo de alimentos. También se evaluaron la hemoglobina glicosilada y las fracciones lipídicas. Resultados: Se encontró una asociación positiva entre el consumo de energía y los valores de masa corporal (ß = 0.377, p = 0.028) y la circunferencia de la cintura (ß = 0.373, p = 0.030), y entre el consumo de proteínas y el porcentaje de grasa corporal (ß = 0.368, p = 0.032).También hubo una influencia positiva de la circunferencia de la cintura en los valores de hemoglobina glicosilada (ß = 0.401, p = 0.019), y el HDL-c estuvo directamente influenciado por el consumo de proteínas (ß = 0.573, p = 0.013) e inversamente por el consumo de grasas (ß = -0.597, p = 0.010). Conclusión: La antropometría, el perfil metabólico y el consumo de alimentos se asociaron entre las mujeres adultas brasileñas evaluadas.

Introduction: Alterations in the lipid, glycemic and hemodynamic profile may increase the risk of developing chronic diseases and mortality. Objective: Associate the metabolic and anthropometric parameters and food intake of Brazilian adult women. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 34 Brazilian women aged 20-59 years old.Alcohol consumption, smoking, physical exercise, blood pressure, anthropometric and food intake data were collected. Glycated hemoglobin and lipid fractions were also evaluated. Results: There was a positive association between energy consumption and body mass (ß= 0.377, p = 0.028) and waist circumference (ß = 0.373, p = 0.030), and between protein intake and body fat percentage (ß = 0.368, p = 0.032). There was also a positive association between waist circumference and the values of glycated hemoglobin (ß = 0.401, p = 0.019), and HDL-cholesterol was influenced directly by protein intake (ß = 0.573, p = 0.013) and inversely by lipid intake (ß = -0.597, p = 0.010). Conclusion: Anthropometry, metabolic profile and food intake were associated among the Brazilian adult women evaluated.

O objetivo foi avaliar os fatores de risco para doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT) em indivíduos atendidos no Programa de Educação Nutricional da Faculdade de Educação Física, da Universidade Federal de Goiás. Participaram 79 sujeitos, sendo 65 adultos e 14 adolescentes. Dados socioeconômicos, hábitos de vida e doen ças prévias foram coletados por meio de anamnese, o hábito alimentar (HA) foi avaliado por um questionário de frequência alimentar e os índices antropométricos utilizados foram o índice de massa corporal (IMC) e circunferência da cintura (CC). A prevalência de sobrepeso e obesidade na população foi de 42,9% (n = 27) e a média da CC dos adultos foi de 82,67 ± 12,49, sendo que 45,1% apresentavam risco aumentado ou muito aumentado para doenças cardiovasculares. Aproximadamente 88,6% da população relatou a existência de DCNT na família. Dos avaliados, 75,0% praticavam exercícios físicos regularmente. Aqueles que eram tabagistas ingeriam álcool frequentemente e os sujeitos não fumantes eram os que mais praticavam atividade física. Em relação ao HA, a ingestão de frutas e hortaliças é realizada por 36,7% e 63,3% dos participantes ao menos uma vez/dia, respectivamente. Conclui-se que os avaliados possuem alta prevalência de exposição a, pelo menos, um fator de risco para DCNT.

The scope of this work was to evaluate the risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases (CNCDs) in subjects treated in the Nutrition Education Program of the School of Physical Education of the Federal University of Goiás. The number of individuals evaluated was 79, namely 65 adults and 14 adolescents. Socio-economic data, lifestyle and previous diseases were recorded by using anamnesis, the feeding habits (FH) were assessed by a food frequency questionnaire and the anthropometric indexes used were body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). The prevalence of overweight and obesity in the population was 42.9% (n = 27) and the average WC of adults was 82.67 ± 12.49, and 45.1% had increased or very increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. About 88.6% of the population reported the existence of CNCDs in the family. Most of the people (75%) exercised regularly. Those who smoked also drank alcohol frequently, and those that did not smoke were the ones that exercised more. The intake of fruit and vegetables is practiced by 36.7% and 63.3% of participants at least once a day, respectively. The conclusion reached is that the population studied had a high prevalence of exposure to at least one risk factor for CNCDs.
