The aims of the present work were to study beverage consumption among obese women from rural communities in Mexico and to estimate daily polyphenol intake and dietary antioxidant capacity from beverages.
A cross-sectional study was used to analyse the beverage intake of 139 premenopausal obese women estimated through repeated 24 h food recalls. Total polyphenol content and antioxidant capacity were determined in eighteen beverages, representing 71 % of total beverage consumption, in order to estimate the intake of polyphenols (mg/person per d) and the dietary antioxidant capacity (μmol Trolox equivalents/person per d) from beverages.
Five rural communities located in Queretaro State, Mexico, in 2008.
A total of 139 premenopausal women identified as obese (BMI 35·0 (se 0·4) kg/m2), aged 25-45 years.
The contribution of beverages to dietary energy was 1369 kJ/d (18 % of total energy intake). Soft drinks were consumed the most (283 (se 17) ml/d), followed by coffee and fresh fruit beverages. Polyphenol intake and dietary antioxidant capacity from beverages was 180·9 (se 12·5) mg/person per d and >1000 μmol Trolox equivalents/person per d, respectively. The items that contributed most to this intake were coffee, roselle drink, peach and guava juices and infusions.
There is an urgent need to reduce the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages among obese women from rural Mexico. Low-sugar beverages rich in polyphenols and antioxidants may be healthier options to replace sweetened drinks and increase the intake of bioactive compounds. Nutritional advice on this topic could be a viable strategy to tackle obesity in rural areas in Mexico.
本研究旨在探讨墨西哥农村社区肥胖女性的饮料消费情况，并评估饮料中的每日多酚摄入量和膳食抗氧化能力。
本研究采用横断面研究分析了 139 名绝经前肥胖女性的饮料摄入量，通过多次 24 小时食物回忆进行估计。对 18 种饮料中的总多酚含量和抗氧化能力进行了测定，这些饮料代表了总饮料消费的 71%，以评估多酚（mg/人/天）和膳食抗氧化能力（μmol Trolox 当量/人/天）的摄入量。
2008 年，墨西哥克雷塔罗州的五个农村社区。
共纳入 139 名被诊断为肥胖的绝经前女性（BMI 35.0（se 0.4）kg/m2），年龄 25-45 岁。
饮料提供的能量占总能量摄入的 1369kJ/d（18%）。软饮料（283（se 17）ml/d）的摄入量最高，其次是咖啡和新鲜水果饮料。来自饮料的多酚摄入量和膳食抗氧化能力分别为 180.9（se 12.5）mg/人/天和>1000μmol Trolox 当量/人/天。对这种摄入量贡献最大的是咖啡、洛神花茶、桃汁和番石榴汁和茶。
墨西哥农村地区肥胖女性急需减少含糖饮料的消费。富含多酚和抗氧化剂的低糖饮料可能是更健康的选择，可以替代含糖饮料，增加生物活性化合物的摄入。关于这个话题的营养建议可能是解决墨西哥农村地区肥胖问题的可行策略。
