Social representations of the diet in patients with diabetes mellitus

The "diet" is part of the collective’s worldview, where culture shapes the webs of significance, giving way to a collective ideology internalised in each individual, which is fully accepted, assigned and assimilated by the collective. The diabetes mellitus is a condition whose importance lies in being one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. This pathology is complex, but their struggle leads to the most basic and elemental: the "diet". Methodology: Explore the common sense in relation to "diet" in patients with diabetes mellitus, via the Theory of Social Representations (SR). Semi-structured surveys were applied to 100 patients in three units of the Mexican Institute of Social Security of the State of Mexico, to define on the basis of the diabetic patients to the "diet". Results: The term "diet" is a social construct, which builds and reinforces a social reality: poverty, inequality, and decontextualized biomedical control and public policies without social inclusive. Conclusion: The end of this research reveals the thin threads of marginalization and ignomia of our collective suffering from diabetes, expose a inequality and insecurity, perpetuating a "diet" desregionalizada inadequate, contextualized, and far from the truth

Conductas alimentarias y sintomatología de trastornos del comportamiento alimentario en estudiantes de nutrición

Los trastornos del comportamiento alimentario son problemas psicopatológicos que en la actualidad están adquiriendo importancia por el incremento de su inci - dencia en ciertos grupos de población. El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar las conductas alimentarias y la presencia de sintomatología de trastornos del comportamiento alimentario en los estudiantes de nutrición de una universidad pública del oriente del Estado de México. Se aplicó una batería de pruebas, en 182 alumnos (157 mujeres y 25 hombres) con un promedio de edad de 20.5 años ( DE = 2.72). Los resultados mostraron 8.8% de participantes con sintomatología de trastornos del comportamiento alimentario, hallando independencia con la variable índice de masa corporal, no obstante, en el porcentaje de grasa si se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas. La insatisfacción corporal, se presentó en 33.51%, aunque las conductas compensatorias no fueron un factor predomi - nante en este grupo, sin embargo, los hallazgos muestran riesgo latente que se acrecenta por la influencia sociocultural del modelo estético corporal e introyecta insatisfacción corporal y cambios en la conducta alimentaria, a pesar de que en su formación académica los estudiantes de nutrición adquieren el conocimiento teórico sobre estas psicopatología
