    Peru is among the countries with the highest prevalence of overweight and obesity, conditions that are commonly assessed through anthropometric parameters. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the lipid profile, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference (WC) in a population from Pachacamac, Villa El Salvador, Lima, in 2015. A descriptive study was conducted on 100 participants aged 20 to 60 years between October and December 2015. Laboratory tests were performed to determine lipid profiles, and anthropometric measurements were taken, including BMI and WC. The Chi-square test was applied to analyze associations. The results indicated that 31% of the participants presented a moderate risk and 8% a high risk due to elevated cholesterol levels. For triglycerides, 8% showed moderate risk and 45% high risk. HDL-cholesterol was low in 51% of participants and borderline in 28%, while LDL-cholesterol was high in 21%. Regarding anthropometric measures, 43% were overweight and 20% obese, and 67% presented a high risk of abdominal obesity. In conclusion, the study demonstrated a correlation between lipid profiles and anthropometric parameters, with higher obesity levels linked to elevated cholesterol and triglyceride values. Additionally, triglyceride levels were positively correlated with waist circumference.
