To describe trends in the proportion of key food groups (KFG) for public health consumption among low income Mexican women (LIMW). From National Surveys of Health and Nutrition a sample of 655 LIMW in 2012, 1158 in 2016 and 2835 in 2018 was analyzed. From a food frequency questionnaire, foods and beverages were classified into 13 KFG: fruits, vegetables, legumes, meats, poultry and fish, plain water, egg and dairy products, cured meats, fast food and fried Mexican snacks, salty snacks, candies and desserts, sweetened cereals, sweetened beverages and sweetened dairy beverages. Consumption was defined if a KFG was consumed at least 10 grams/day and 3 days/week, 7 days/week was the criterion for fruits, vegetables and plain water. The proportion of LIMW that consumed each KFG was compared through time. There were greater decreases in the proportion of LIMW which consumed salty snacks, candies and desserts, sweetened cereals and cured meats, egg and dairy products. Moderate reductions were found in sweetened beverages, legumes and meats, poultry and fish. Less than 40% of LIMW consumed fruits and less than 30% vegetables, with no changes. Approximately 15% of LIMW did not drink water daily. (Table 1). Important decreases in consumption of KFG in LIMW were found. Further research is needed in order to understand which factors could be related with those changes. Mexican Ministry of Health. National Coordination of "PROSPERA"
