BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE In recent decades, changes in the diet of Brazilians have been characterized by increased consumption of high energy-dense foods, rich in fat and sugar. This study was aimed at assessing diet quality based on the intake of foods with high content of solid fat and added sugars (SoFAS). SUBJECTS/METHODS The first Brazilian National Dietary Survey (2008-2009) is a nationwide representative cross-sectional study that collected food records from 34,003 ≥ 10-year-old individuals. A receiver-operating characteristic curve was used to determine the limit that would identify diets with high SoFAS content. RESULTS The limit of 45% of total dietary energy provided by SoFAS was adopted to classify diets with excessive content. The SoFAS provided 53% of daily energy intake to adolescents, 49% to adults, and 48% to the elderly. A high intake of SoFAS was found in 64.7% of adolescents, 59.1% of adults, and 57.8% of the elderly. The contribution of SoFAS to daily energy intake increased with income in all age groups. Those with high consumption of SoFAS had higher intakes of sugar-sweetened beverages, cookies and cakes, processed meats, chips, candy and chocolate, and sandwiches and snacks, when compared with those that had moderate SoFAS intake (<45% of daily energy). CONCLUSIONS The 45% cutoff point for the contribution of SoFAS foods to total energy intake, utilized to classify low-quality diets, allowed to point out the high-risk profile of the Brazilian diet.

巴西人口摄入的饱和脂肪，反式脂肪和添加的糖：评估饮食质量的指标。

背景/目的在最近几十年中，巴西人饮食结构的改变以增加了富含脂肪和糖的高能量密度食品的消费为特征。这项研究旨在根据高脂肪和高糖（SoFAS）含量高的食物的摄入量来评估饮食质量。受试者/方法第一次巴西国家饮食调查（2008-2009年）是一项全国性的代表性横断面研究，收集了34,003≥10岁个体的食物记录。使用接收者操作特征曲线来确定可以识别高SoFAS含量饮食的极限值。结果采用SoFAS提供的总饮食能量的45％的限制来对含量过多的饮食进行分类。SoFAS为青少年提供了53％的日常能量摄入，为成年人提供了49％的能量，为老年人提供了48％的能量。在64.7％的青少年，59.1％的成年人和57.8％的老年人中，SoFAS的摄入量很高。在所有年龄段中，SoFAS对每日能量摄入的贡献均随着收入的增加而增加。与那些摄入SoFAS的人相比，摄入SoFAS的人的糖摄入量较高（<每日能量的45％），糖类饮料，饼干和蛋糕，加工肉类，薯片，糖果和巧克力以及三明治和零食的摄入量较高。 。结论SoFAS食品占总能量摄入的45％临界点用于对低质量饮食进行分类，从而指出了巴西饮食的高风险特征。与那些摄入SoFAS的人相比，摄入SoFAS的人的糖摄入量较高（<每日能量的45％），糖类饮料，饼干和蛋糕，加工肉类，薯片，糖果和巧克力以及三明治和零食的摄入量较高。 。结论SoFAS食品占总能量摄入的45％临界点用于对低质量饮食进行分类，从而指出了巴西饮食的高风险特征。与那些摄入SoFAS的人相比，摄入SoFAS的人的糖摄入量较高（<每日能量的45％），糖类饮料，饼干和蛋糕，加工肉类，薯片，糖果和巧克力以及三明治和零食的摄入量较高。 。结论SoFAS食品占总能量摄入的45％临界点用于对低质量饮食进行分类，从而指出了巴西饮食的高风险特征。
