    El objetivo del presente estudio fue observar el consumo alimenticio y la prevalencia del síndrome metabólico en mujeres activas e inactivas físicamente en la post-menopausia. La muestra fue compuesta de 83 mujeres, pertenecientes al municipio de Natal (Río Grande do Norte) de Brasil; pertenecientes al programa “Natal Activa”, con edad media de 59,7 ± 8,08 años. Se aplicó un cuestionario para analizar la frecuencia del consumo alimenticio, un cuestionario de actividad física, una anamnesis clínica, una evaluación antropométrica, exámenes bioquímicos y un diagnóstico del Síndrome Metabólico. Los resultados mostraron que las mujeres activas consumen más alimentos protectores que las mujeres inactivas. La prevalencia del síndrome metabólico en las mujeres inactivas fue mayor que en las mujeres activas, además, existe la necesidad de cambiar dichos hábitos en esta población, pudiéndose alcanzar así mayores cambios corporales y metabólicos, minimizando la incidencia del síndrome metabólico en los dos gruposThe aim of this study was to observe the dietary intake and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in physically active and inactive women in the postmenopause. The sample was composed of 83 women, from the municipality of Natal (Rio Grande do Norte) in Brazil; from the "Natal Active" program, with an average age of 59.7 ± 8.08 years old. A questionnaire to analyze the frequency of food consumption, physical activity questionnaire, a clinical anamnesis, anthropometric evaluation, biochemical tests and a diagnosis of metabolic syndrome was applied. The results showed that active women consume more protective foods than inactive women. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in inactive women was higher than in active women, in addition, there is a need to change those habits in this population, being able thus to achieve greater physical and metabolic changes, minimizing the incidence of metabolic syndrome in both group

Loci were developed for the following species: Brassica oleracea, Brycon amazonicus, Dimorphandra wilsonii, Eupallasella percnurus, Helleborus foetidus, Ipomoea purpurea, Phrynops geoffroanus, Prochilodus argenteus, Pyura sp., Sylvia atricapilla, Teratosphaeria suttonii, Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Trypanosoma brucei. These loci were cross-tested on the following species: Dimorphandra coccicinea, Dimorphandra cuprea, Dimorphandra gardneriana, Dimorphandra jorgei, Dimorphandra macrostachya, Dimorphandra mollis, Dimorphandra parviflora and Dimorphandra pennigera
