Background: Assess the impact of nutritional counseling among the staff of a primary health care (PHC) unit in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Methods: Intervention study undertaken for 3 months, among the staff of a PHC unit. To assess the nutritional profile, anthropometric (body mass index and waist circumference) and food intake analyses (food record and food frequency questionnaire) were used. Healthy eating practices were encouraged through six nutritional education activities and three individualized nutritional consultations. Results: Of a sample of 22 individuals (44% of the total staff), 86.4% (n=19) were women, of whom 68.2% (n=15) wanted to lose weight. The intervention stimulated improvement of the daily intake of milk/dairy products and fruit, along with a reduction of the consumption of fried foods, sweets and soft drinks (p0.05) with respect to anthropometry among the staff who sought weight reduction. Conclusions: Nutritional counseling improved the staff 's food intake pattern. A longer intervention period would provide more satisfactory anthropometric results. |
