Obesity Management in Children and Adolescents

Obesity is the most common nutritional disorder during childhood and adolescence, and its prevalence has progressively increased in recent years, in which a wide availability of hypercaloric nutrients coexists with lifestyle changes (predominance of sedentary lifestyles), poor dietary habits (ignorance, sometimes total, of the nutritional characteristics of food), and a food intake mainly based on its sensory and palatable characteristics, has led to this increase in overweight and subsequent obesity. However, the management of obesity continues to be one of the greatest challenges in clinical practice. In this workshop, participants will learn the design of meal regimens, the dietary reeducation of children and their families, psychological support, and increased physical activity.
