FAJARDO BONILLA, ESPERANZA et al. CHARACTERIZATION OF NUTRITIONAL STATE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY OF A ROTATIVE PILOTS POPULATION IN BOGOTA CITY. rev.fac.med [online]. 2015, vol.23, n.1, pp.12-18. ISSN 0121-5256.  https://doi.org/10.18359/rmed.1325.

Cardiovascular diseases, as part of chronic communicable diseases, represent a public healthy problem in the world and of the most influent factors in work and production performance. Nutrition and supply are considered in those risk factors. This articles show characterization of nutritional state and physical activity in a group of pilots established in Bogota city. Corporal composition was evaluated with anthropometric techniques and impedance measure; consumption of smokes based on consumption frequency; and pattern of physical activity evaluation. Group was composed 23 people between 24 and 39 years (middle age of 29,8 ± 4,5). According to results, 60,6% of those people has overweight and 8.7%, obesity grade 1. There is a lineal direct association between the corporal mass index and waist circumference. Most of pilots have corporal fat values over normal parameters in high and very high ranges, as well as increase of hip perimeter values (89,8 ± 8,31) with regard to reference patterns. The recommended daily consumption of fruits was watched in 13% and vegetables consumption in the 45,5% of the total. 39% drinks sodas 1 to 3 times at day and 48% drinks industrial juices 1 to times at day. 34% of people say consuming sausages and fast food 1 to 3 times at day. 55,6% of people refers to do activity of moderated intensity and 33,3% of pilots, vigorous physical activity. 66,7% of the group stay sits 5 to 7 hours every day. It is clear the necessity for making strategies of prevention and/or control of risk factor related with nutritional state and the pattern of physical activity in this group of airplane pilots to boost their working and productive performance.
