Objective The present study describes the consumption patterns of sweetened food and drink products in a Catholic Middle Eastern Canadian community and examines its associations with physical activity, sedentary behaviours and BMI. Design A two-stage cross-sectional design was used. In Stage 1 ( n 42), 24 h recalls enabled the identification of sweetened products. In Stage 2 ( n 192), an FFQ was administered to measure the daily consumption of these products and to collect sociodemographic and behavioural data. Sweetened products were defined as processed culinary ingredients and ultra-processed products for which total sugar content exceeded 20 % of total energy. Setting Three Catholic Middle Eastern churches located in Montreal, Canada. Subjects Normoglycaemic men and women (18–60 years old). Results Twenty-six sweetened products represented an average consumption of 75·4 g total sugars/d or 15·1 % of daily energy intake ( n 190, 56 % women). Soft drinks, juices, sweetened coffee, chocolate, cookies, cakes and muffins were the main sources of consumption and mostly consumed between meals. Age (exp ( β ) = 0·99; P β ) = 1·08; P β ) = 1·17; P Conclusions Being physically active and spending less time using a computer may favour a reduced consumption of sweetened products. Very active individuals may, however, overconsume such products
