ABSTRACT
The increase of the morbi-mortality due to CHD in México, particularly among the Social Security Institute (IMSS) workers led us to do research on the relative risk and the protection provided by foodstuffs usually consumed by these workers. We found significant evidence of low levels of cholesterol associated with dry alcoholic drinks, skimmed milk and yogurt as well as fresh cheeses. C-LDL was low among people that usually consume sweet alcoholic drinks and fresh cheese. High levels of TG were associated with those people consuming food products containing saturated fat (bacon, pork crackling, fatty red meat, fowl with skin) and viscera, more than three standard cups of alcoholic drinks three times a week, soft drinks and salt. Skimmed milk and yogurt and all vegetables were related to low levels of TG. Products related to high levels of C-HDL were all kinds of vegetables and beans. This study of IMSS worker eating habits could be useful to do research on the food intake of other worker populations, and could help us to design Health Education programs based on scientific knowledge.
