Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Dear Authors, 

Your MS is well written exploring the prevalence of risk and protective factors for NCDs among Brazilian adults with pre-obesity and obesity and compare it to that of non-overweight adults 

You observed that adults with pre-obesity and obesity were more likely to perform risk factors related to sedentary behavior and less leisure-time physical activity (among adults with obesity) and active commuting (among adults with pre-obesity and obesity) and alcohol abuse. However, among adults with pre-obesity and obesity, a lower prevalence was observed in relation to the regular consumption of sweets and smoking. The identified risk and protective factors had a similar prevalence between 2013 and 2019. Brazilian adults with preobesity and obesity presented worrisome scenario regarding risk and protective factor for NCDs.

Conclusions are then important in clinical practice.

This represents the strength of the present study.

I have only minor suggestion.
