description Abstract:  The feeding of the military personnel has to procure an optimum nutritional state, the personal welfare and the operative effectiveness. Objective: Analyse the association between dietary intake recommended in the Alimentary Guides for the Argentinian Population and the level of physical activity with the nutritional state in military personnel of the commando Force of Fast Deployment of the Argentinian Army. Córdoba, 2020. Methods: Observational, descriptive, of court transversal study. The probabilistic sample was of 95 participants (IC:95%), men and women of 18 to 60 years. Was it excluded to soldiers with pregnancy in course; pathologies and alimentary diets that was involve alimentary restrictions. It’s was used the leaf of information to the participant and consent informed. Was they respected the principles of the statement of Helsinki in the design and realisation of the study. It applied ad hoc designed questionnaire and subjected to pilot proof to know the individual alimentary consumption and measure the fulfillment of the alimentary rations recommended by groups of foods. This factor was classified according to the proportion of groups of foods covered to recommendation in: low (49,9%); moderate (50%-79,9%); and high (80%). The physical activity relieved by means of International Physical Activity Questionnaire (2002) and classified in three levels (drop, moderate and high). To estimate the nutritional state was requested current weight and size, data administered by the respondents; Afterwards it was calculated and classified the BMI by means of WHO (2000). The association between factors was valued by means of Chi-square, assuming a type one error of 0,05. Results: overweight and obesity prevailet (55,7%), It was more frequent in men and in the group of 26 years or more. The fulfillment of the recommendation resulted low for: legumes, cereals, pope, bread and pastes; seeds and nuts; milk, yoghourt and cheeses. the high level physical activity predominated without differences by gender. It was not find association between the factors observed (p>0,05) wiht level of confidence of 95%. Conclusions: The nutritional state of the military personnel can not explain from the factors selected. It’s need to include other factors to the analysis of the phenomenon studied.

Resumen:  Introducción: La alimentación del personal militar debe procurar un estado nutricional óptimo, el bienestar personal y la efectividad operativa. Objetivo: Analizar la asociación entre adecuación del consumo alimentario a las GAPA y nivel de actividad física con el estado nutricional en suboficiales del Comando Fuerza de Despliegue Rápido (FDR) del Ejército Argentino. Córdoba, 2020. Material y métodos: Estudio epidemiológico observacional, descriptivo y correlacional, de corte transversal. La muestra probabilística fue de 95 participantes (IC:95%), varones y mujeres de 18 a 60 años. Se excluyó personal con embarazo en curso; patologías y regímenes alimenticios que impliquen restricciones alimentarias. Resguardos éticos: hoja de información al participante y consentimiento informado. Se respetaron los principios de la declaración de Helsinki en el diseño y abordaje del estudio. Se aplicó cuestionario semiestructurado diseñado ad hoc y sometido a prueba piloto para indagar el consumo alimentario individual y medir adecuación a las raciones diarias recomendadas por las GAPA por grupos de alimentos. Tal adecuación se categorizó según la proporción de grupos de alimentos cubiertos a recomendación en: baja (≤49,9%); moderada (50%-79,9%); y alta (≥80%). La actividad física se relevó mediante Cuestionario Internacional de Actividad Física (IPAQ, 2002) y se categorizó en tres niveles (baja, moderada y alta). Para estimar el estado nutricional se solicitó peso actual y talla, datos autoreferenciados; luego se calculó y clasificó el IMC según OMS (2000). La asociación entre variables fue valorada mediante Chi-cuadrado, asumiendo un error tipo 1 de 0,05. Resultados: Primó la malnutrición por exceso calórico (55,7%), siendo más frecuente en varones y en el grupo etario ≥ 26 años. La adecuación a las GAPA resultó baja para: legumbres, cereales, papa, pan y pastas; semillas y frutos secos; leche, yogurt y quesos. Predominó el nivel de actividad física alto sin diferencias relevantes por género. No se evidenció asociación estadísticamente significativa entre las variables observadas (p>0,05) considerando un nivel de confianza del 95%. Conclusiones: El estado nutricional del personal militar no se puede explicar a partir de las variables seleccionadas. Se asume la necesidad de incluir otros factores al análisis del fenómeno estudiado. Universidad Nacional Córdoba. Facultad de Ciencias Médicas.
