    Introduction and objective: Metabolic disorders (MD) exert a great influence on the development of chronic non-communicable diseases, which have high morbidity and mortality in the adult female population. The objective of this study was to investigate the dietary intake, mainly of fatty acids by the climacteric female population, participants of a University of the Third Age in the Municipality of Canela - RS, and its possible association with MD. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional, descriptive and quantitative study. Women (n=45) in aged between 50 - 69 years were submitted to date collection through questionnaires and anthropometric measurements. Results: Although almost 90% of the participants were regular practitioners of physical activity, the majority were overweight and/or obese (53%), and 60% had CC> 88 cm. The prevalence of DM was 55% and of those 36% reported dyslipidemias. The consumption of saturated fat and carbohydrates was statistically higher in women in the DM group (25 and 36%, respectively). Conclusion: Excessive intake of saturated fats and carbohydrates even in physically active women is a factor associated with DM. The data presented may contribute information about the adequate dietary orientation of the adult and elderly female population as a preventive factor for chronic non-communicable diseases.

    Introdução e objetivo: Distúrbios metabólicos (DM) exercem grande influência no desenvolvimento de doenças crônicas não-transmissíveis, as quais tem alta morbi/mortalidade na população feminina adulta. O objetivo desse estudo foi investigar o consumo alimentar, principalmente de ácidos graxos pela população feminina climatérica, participantes de uma Universidade da Terceira Idade no Município de Canela – RS, e sua possível associação com DM. Materiais e métodos: Estudo transversal, descritivo e quantitativo. Mulheres (n=45) na faixa etária de 50 à 69 anos submeteram-se à coleta de dados por meio de questionários e aferição das medidas antropométricas. Resultados: Embora quase 90% das participantes seja praticante regular de atividades físicas, a maioria encontrava-se com sobrepeso e/ou obesidade (53%), sendo que 60% estavam com CC>88 cm. A prevalência de DM foi 55% e dessas 36% relataram dislipidemias. O consumo de gordura saturada e carboidratos foi estatisticamente maior nas mulheres do grupo DM (25 e 36%, respectivamente). Conclusão: Ingesta excessiva de gorduras saturadas e carboidratos mesmo em mulheres fisicamente ativas é um fator associado à DM. Os dados apresentados podem contribuir com informações acerca da orientação adequada da dieta da população feminina adulta e idosa como fator de prevenção para doenças crônicas não-transmissíveis. ABSTRACT Lipid consumption and its contribution in metabolic disorders in older and elderly women of Serra Gaúcha, south of BrazilIntroduction and objective: Metabolic disorders (MD) exert a great influence on the development of chronic non-communicable diseases, which have high morbidity and mortality in the adult female population.
