Participants were first generation immigrant’s adults selected trough spatial random sampling. Data was collected in 2007. The sample included 1777 immigrants (adherence rate: 97.9%) (37.8% Brazilian; 53.5% female). Pre-obesity rates were 13.0% and 30.9% (Brazilian) and 32.8% and 36.0% (African) among female and male, respectively. Obesity rates were 7.1% and 7.8% (Brazilian) and 17.8% and 9.1% (African), respectively. Body mass index varies with age, marital status, time of residence in Portugal and nativity. It’s essential to follow health indicators in immigrants, in order to design specific public health strategies. ER -
