Objective: Evaluate the eating behavior of patients with diabetes and/or hypertension assisted in a nutrition clinic, and to associate this behavior with sociodemographic, clinical and nutritional factors. Methods: This is a retrospective cross-sectional study that used data from individuals with type 2 diabetes and/or hypertension, adults and elderly, of both genders, in their first outpatient consultation with Nutrition. To obtain data on eating behavior, the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire was used, reduced to 21 items, and nutritional anamnesis to obtain independent variables, such as sociodemographic, clinical and nutritional. Data were analyzed descriptively and analytically. Results: Fifty five patients were evaluated, most of them overweight women and elderly, diagnosed with concomitant diabetes and hypertension. The eating behavior related to cognitive restriction had the highest median among the evaluated domains. Emotional eating was significantly associated with female gender (p=0.0079); however, lack of dietary control was associated with the use of antidepressant medications (p=0.0403). Conclusion: It is suggested that future research be carried out to explore long-term eating behavior.
