Overweight and food consumption

By Aline Valéria Martins Pereira

This book is justified by the increase in the number of overweight children in Brazil and, above all, by the risks associated with this condition, such as greater vulnerability to developing diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and hypertension. In this sense, the data investigated seeks to understand the nutritional status of children, as well as its association with food consumption. These data are important not only for those responsible, but also for health professionals, as they can facilitate the implementation of interventions that minimize the prevalence of excess weight in children, protecting their health.
