Effects of a Dietary Intervention Based on the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population on the Reduction of Menopausal Symptoms in Overweight and Obese Women
2026年9月10日 更新者：Profª Drª Fernanda Michielin Busnello、Federal University of Health Science of Porto Alegre
The menopausal transition is associated with significant hormonal changes that negatively impact many women's quality of life. Vasomotor symptoms, sleep disturbances, mood changes, and genitourinary symptoms are frequently reported during this period. Concurrently, there is a tendency toward increased body weight and fat redistribution, specifically central fat accumulation, which raises the risk of metabolic diseases. Although hormonal therapy is effective, it is not suitable for all women, necessitating the consideration of non-pharmacological strategies as therapeutic alternatives. Scientific evidence indicates that healthy dietary patterns and weight loss are associated with reduced menopausal symptom severity.
The objective of the research is to evaluate the effects of a dietary intervention based on the guidelines of the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population (GAPB) on the reduction of menopausal symptoms.
A randomized clinical trial will be conducted to assess whether improving dietary quality and reducing body weight contribute to alleviating menopausal symptoms. Participants will be assigned to two groups: a control group (CG) and an intervention group (IG). Both groups will receive nutritional guidance based on the GAPB; however, the CG will receive the guidelines in printed format, whereas the IG will receive them through group sessions. The study will include perimenopausal or postmenopausal women who are overweight or obese and experiencing menopausal symptoms. Validated instruments will be administered at the beginning and end of the study to assess dietary patterns, menopausal symptoms, and nutritional status.

他の：Control group (CG)
The control group will receive nutritional guidance on healthy eating based on the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population, provided exclusively as printed material distributed at the start of the study.
The guidance will be standardized, with no individual follow-up or in-person meetings.

アクティブコンパレータ：Intervention group (IG)
The intervention group will receive nutritional guidance on healthy eating, based on the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population, provided via printed materials and five monthly in-person sessions.
|
The intervention group will participate in five monthly Food and Nutrition Education sessions based on the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population.
The first session will be an individual session on nutritional guidance, while the second will be a virtual group session on the NOVA food classification system.
The third session will be a virtual group session on nutrition labeling.
The fourth session will be a virtual group session on reducing culinary ingredients (salt, sugar, and fat) in food preparation.
The fifth session will be an in-person group cooking workshop focused on preparing healthy and practical recipes.

Menopausal Symptoms
時間枠：From the enrollment period to the end of the study: 5 months.
|
Baseline and outcome variables will be collected for both groups (control and intervention) prior to the start and at the end of the five-month follow-up period.
Menopausal symptom intensity, measured using the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) questionnaire, will be the primary outcome indicator.
This instrument assesses 11 symptoms on a scale of 0 to 4, where 0 indicates no complaints, 1 mild, 2 moderate, 3 severe, and 4 very severe, with a maximum possible score of 44 points.

Dietary pattern
時間枠：From the date of enrollment to the end of the intervention: 5 months
|
Baseline and outcome variables will be collected for both groups (control and intervention) prior to the start and at the end of the five-month follow-up period.
Dietary patterns will be assessed using the NOVA 24-Hour Dietary Recall, based on data regarding food intake from the previous day.
This tool was developed by the Center for Epidemiological Research in Nutrition and Health (NUPENS) at the University of São Paulo (USP) on the QUEST NOVA platform-available at https://www.fsp.usp.br/nupens/quest-nova/-and
classifies foods according to their degree of processing based on the NOVA classification system.
The results show total caloric intake categorized into four groups: Group 1 (unprocessed or minimally processed foods), Group 2 (culinary ingredients), Group 3 (processed foods), and Group 4 (ultra-processed foods).

Body mass index
時間枠：From the date of enrollment to the end of the intervention: 5 months
|
Baseline and outcome variables will be collected for both groups (control and intervention) prior to the start and at the end of the five-month follow-up period.
The BMI (Body Mass Index) classification is calculated by dividing body weight (kg) by height (m) squared and is used to classify nutritional status according to WHO standards.

From the date of enrollment to the end of the intervention: 5 months

Waist circumference
時間枠：From the date of enrollment to the end of the intervention: 5 months
|
Baseline and outcome variables will be collected for both groups (control and intervention) prior to the start and at the end of the five-month follow-up period.
Waist circumference will be measured, with the participant standing, at the end of a normal exhalation, with an inelastic and non-extensive anthropometric tape surrounding the abdominal region at the midpoint between the lower edge of the last rib and the iliac crest.
Measurements will be taken in duplicate and recorded in centimeters on the data collection form.
The average will be used to classify metabolic risk, with a cutoff point of 88 cm for women.
