In the context of public health of low and middle-income countries, there are just a few longitudinal studies analyzing the effect of physical activity on health outcomes, especially among adults and / or elderly. Thus, the aim of this study was to verify the occurrence of noncommunicable diseases and mortality according to physical activity levels among adults aged >50 years, users of the Brazilian National Health System, during five years of follow-up.
