- Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate changes in the consumption of sugar sweetened soft drinks and nutritional status of adults linked to a federal educational institution located in Vitória (ES), after an intervention program. Anthropometric measurements and sugary drink intake data were collected from all participants, who were randomized and allocated into two groups, intervention (mHealth actions) and control. After that, a reevaluation was performed. The outcomes were evaluated in relation to the groups and the initial and final moments, using SPSS version 21.0, adopting p <0.05. We evaluated 200 individuals with a mean age of 33.8 ± 11.3 years. The means for waist circumference and body mass index at each moment, for the control group, were statistically different, with an increase in measurements. Regarding the consumption of sugary drinks, there were no statistically significant differences in the two groups.
