dc.description.abstractTHERE ARE DATA THAT INDICATE THAT OBESITY IS HIGHER AMONG HOUSEWIVES. A CENTRAL PART OF THE CONTROL OF THE EPIDEMIC IS THE DEFINITION OF NORMALITY AND WHAT SOCIETY PERCEIVES AS NORMAL OR ABNORMAL. IT IS CLEAR THAT THE APPROPRIATE BODY IMAGE RECEIVES CULTURAL INFLUENCES, VERBAL OR NOT, AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT PEOPLE DO NOT PERCEIVE THE PROBLEM PROPERLY AND THEREFORE DO NOT THINK OF PREVENTIVE / CORRECTIVE MEASURES. OBJECTIVES: COMPARE BIOCHEMICAL AND ANTHROPOMETRIC MEASUREMENTS WITH THE SELF-PERCEPTION REFERRED BY THE PARTICIPATING HOUSEWIVES. METHODS: 81 HOUSEWIVES PARTICIPATED BETWEEN 30 AND 60 YEARS OF AGE. THE ANTHROPOMETRIC EVALUATION AND THE MEASUREMENT OF BLOOD PRESSURE, GLUCOSE, CHOLESTEROL AND TRIGLYCERIDES WERE PERFORMED, IN ADDITION THE PEOPLE DECLARED THEIR PERCEPTION OF THEIR BODY WEIGHT AND THE BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS MENTIONED ABOVE. RESULTS: IT WAS OBTAINED THAT THE AVERAGE BMI WAS 29.48 ± 5.16 KG / M2 AND AVERAGE WAIST 89.84 ± 11.66 CM. REGARDING BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS, THE AVERAGE GLUCOSE WAS 107.78 + 38.04 MG / DL, CHOLESTEROL 186.91 + 38.61 MG / DL AND TRIGLYCERIDES 192.54 + 75.49 MG / DL. ACCORDING TO BMI AND BODY PERCEPTION, ONLY 13.1% WERE CORRECTLY PERCEIVED WITH AN IDEAL WEIGHT, 21.7% OVERWEIGHT AND 3.5% WITH OBESITY, UNDERVALUATION OF WEIGHT IN OBESE PEOPLE WAS FREQUENT. ACCORDING TO WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE, 55.5% HAVE A SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASED CARDIOVASCULAR RISK. WOMEN UNDER 40 TEND TO PERCEIVE BETTER WHEN THEY ARE OVERWEIGHT. MANY PARTICIPANTS HAD HIGH BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS AND HIGH TRIGLYCERIDE LEVELS, BUT THEIR PERCEPTION WAS UNDERESTIMATED. CHOLESTEROL LEVELS AND BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT WERE CORRECTLY PERCEIVED. CONCLUSIONS: PERSONAL PERCEPTION IS A DETERMINING FACTOR IN LIFESTYLE AND HAS AN IMPACT ON THE ACCEPTANCE OF HEALTH PROBLEMS SUCH AS OBESITY AND OVERWEIGHT, SINCE PEOPLE WHO PERCEIVE THEMSELVES WRONGLY PRESENT A GREATER RISK TO THEIR HEALTH.
