| Risk factors | OR (95% Confidence Interval) | p value |
|---|---|---|
| Obesity from having obese parents | 4.0 (1.2–13.0) | 0.02 |
| Overweight and obesity from having obese parents | 3.6 (1.3–9.5) | 0.01 |
| Abdominal obesity(1) from having obese parents | 5.1 (1.8–13.9) | < 0.01 |
| Abdominal obesity(1) from having parents with abdominal obesity | 2.85 (1.2–6.6) | 0.02 |
| Overweight and obesity from consumption of beans (≥ 7 times a week vs ≤ 1 times a week ) | 5.9 (1.6–21.6) | < 0.01 |
| Overweight and obesity from consumption of salsa (≥ 3 times a week vs ≤ 1 times a week) | 2.5 (1.02–6.2) | 0.05 |
| Overweight and obesity from consumption of potato and tortilla chips with salsa (≥ 3 times a week vs ≤ 1 times a week) and beans (≥ 7 times a week vs ≤ 1 times a week) | 6.1 (1.7–21.5) | < 0.01 |
| Overweight and obesity from consumption of potato and tortilla chips (≥ 4 times a week vs ≤ 1 times a week ) | 4.6 (1.6–13.4) | < 0.01 |
| Risk of abdominal obesity from consumption of burritos (never vs ≥ 1 times a week) | 4.2 (1.4–12.7) | 0.01 |
