So, this study was carried out to determine the relation between western dietary patterns with metabolic syndrome in Khorramabad city. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 973 patients (237 males and 736 females) Khorramabad's residences were selected by using of multistage cluster and randomized systematic sampling. Food intake assessment, weight and height were measured and BMI calculated. Venous blood samples were collected for measurement of metabolic variables and blood pressures. Metabolic syndrome was defined based on AHA (American Heart Association) criteria. Findings: This study showed that participants in the highest quintile of western dietary pattern in compare to the participants in the lowest quintile of western dietary pattern had more risk of metabolic syndrome (OR=2.21, CI 95%: 1.42-3.44). Conclusion: Findings of this study showed that western dietary pattern (visceral meat, margarine, coffee, nut, sweet and dessert, additives, colas, sundry, red meat, and processed meat) increases the risk of metabolic syndrome.
