The objective of this study was to associate the main cardiometabolic risk factors with nutritional status, soft drink intake (SDI) and other beverages with AS. Participants were 89 adolescents 10-15 years old (53 with obesity [GCO] and 36 without obesity [GSO]). The measures were: body fat percentage, body mass index, blood pressure, uric acid and blood glucose; besides a food reminder of 24 hours and a food intake frequency questionnaire. From the GCO, 31% had hypertension, 71% acanthosis nigricans, 13% hyperuricemia and 17% high values of glucose. However, the GSO increased the consumption of soft drinks, as well as the limit values ​​in other risk factors. Although there were no differences between the groups in the consumption of carbohydrates , there were in the frequency and amount of simple sugar and drinks with AS, for instance soft drinks. It is highlighted the importance to include the already known risk factors and a detailed analysis of SDI and other soft drinks with AS.

El objetivo del presente estudio fue investigar la asociacion de los principales factores de riesgo cardiometabolico con el estado nutricio, el consumo de refresco (CNR) y de otras bebidas con AZA. Participaron 89 adolescentes de 10-15 anos de edad (53 con obesidad [GCO] y 36 sin obesidad [GSO]). Las medidas recabadas fueron: porcentaje de grasa corporal, indice de masa corporal, presion arterial, acido urico y glucosa sanguinea; ademas de un recordatorio de alimentacion (24 hrs) y un cuestionario de frecuencia de consumo de alimentos. Del GCO, 31% presento hipertension, 71% acantosis nigricans, 13% hiperuricemia y 17% valores altos de glucosa. No obstante, e l GSO registro mayor consumo de refresco, asi como valores limitrofes en los demas factores de riesgo. Aunque no hubo diferencia entre los grupos en el consumo de carbohidratos, si en la frecuencia y cantidad del consumo de azucar simple y de bebidas con AZA, entre ellas el refresco. Destaca la importancia de integrar a los factores de riesgo ya conocidos, el analisis pormenorizado del CNR y otras bebidas con AZA.
