| Popis: | OBJECTIVES: To characterize and compare the food consumption of independent community-dwelling older adults with and without sarcopenia. METHODS: Descriptive cross-sectional study, conducted with data from 50 community-dwelling older adults receiving care in secondary level of health in a city in southeastern Brazil, during 2017. The following tests were used to diagnose sarcopenia: dual X-ray absorptiometry, hand grip strength and walk speed. Data from intake was obtained by three 24-hour Multiple Pass Recall and the consumption variation was adjusted in the Multiple Source Method Program. The consumption of macronutrientes and micronutrientes was compared between the groups without sarcopenia and those with pre-sarcopenia/sarcopenia. The means were measures of average consumption, nutrients inadequacy and consumption ranges. The results are expressed as descriptive data, presented as media, standard deviation and absolute and relative frequency. A significance level adopted was P 75%) for those nutrients. CONCLUSIONS: The lowest intake by the elderly with sarcopenia and the high inadequacy of important nutrients for muscle mass preservation and strength by both groups of elderly could contribute for the development of this condition.
