Anthropometric measurements, blood pressure and biochemical analyzes were performed. Statistical test was applied to cross color/race/ethnicity variable with the investigated variables. Results: indigenous had better metabolic and anthropornetric indicators related to cardiovascular diseases than mixed-race/bladc and white, as well as Satere-Mawe in relation to Rionegrinos (from Rio Negro). Conclusions: the main differences were obesity, dyslipidemia, pre-systemic arterial hypertension/ systemic arterial hypertension, and increased circumferences, with a worse situation for mixed-race/black people.
