Introduction: lifestyle is based on the interaction between living conditions and individual behavior patterns. Physical inactivity and poor diet are examples of factors influencing the health status of the population.Objective: to determine the influence of physical inactivity and poor diet on the health of the population of Pinar del Rio.
Method: an observational analytical cross-sectional study of prevalence was carried out in Pinar del Río Municipality in 2010. The universe consisted of 148 568 individuals of both sexes, 15 to 74 years old, the sample was 2515 individuals chosen by a complex sampling design, stratified by multistage clusters. For information we used the instrument designed for monitoring risk factors for chronic diseases in the Pan American STEPS version. The processing and analysis of the results was performed with the SPSS statistical package for the design of complex samples.
Results: in sedentary individuals the percentage of hypertension (35.8%) was higher, as well as overweight and obesity (47.5%), hypercholesterolemia (14.2%), diabetes (10.9%), alcohol (9.8%), and glomerular filtration rate below 60 ml/min (18.8%) . These were statistically associated with physical inactivity. In individuals with inadequate diet some data were higher: the percentage of hypertension (35%), overweight and obesity (47.1%), hypercholesterolemia (13.4%), hypertriglyceridemia (13.9%), diabetes (10.1%), high waist circumference (35%) and glomerular filtration rate below 60 ml/min (16.6%).
Conclusions: physical inactivity and poor diet influenced the health of the Pinar del Rio population studied.
