“…Our results show a great lack of knowledge of healthy nutrition and healthy eating habits and suggest that, without active intervention, these young people are at risk of obesity, nutritional deficiencies and associated health problems. Consistent with previous research (21,40) findings reporting a strong association between the nutritional knowledge of adolescents and their eating habits, our findings also showed a positive association between higher levels of nutritional knowledge and healthier eating habits, including eating more fruit and vegetables, eating breakfast more regularly, and eating fewer unhealthy snacks and less fast food.…”

“…Los estilos de vida negativos o comportamientos poco saludables que aprenden los niños incrementan el riesgo de sufrir enfermedades cardiovasculares y otras enfermedades crónicas a futuro (Céspedes et al, 2013). Algunos estudios recomiendan que las estrategias de promoción de la salud cardiovascular se deben iniciar en las escuelas e incluso en los centros de cuidado preescolar, por ser la forma más efectiva de promover los comportamientos saludables (Macias et al, 2012;Céspedes et al, 2013;Larson et al, 2011;Nava, Pérez, Herrera, & Hernández, 2011;Peñalvo, Sotos-Prieto, Santos-Beneit, Pocock, Redondo et al, 2013;Sigman-Grant, Byington, Lindsay, Lu, Mobley et al, 2014;Tarro, Llauradó, Albaladejo, Moriña, Arija et al, 2014). Por esta razón, es urgente identificar las intervenciones efectivas en este grupo etario específico a fin de prevenir sobrepeso y obesidad (Larson, Ward, Neelon, & Story, 2011;Sigman-Grant et al, 2014;Monasta, Batty, Macaluso, Ronfani, Lutje et al, 2011).…”

Varios países han puesto en marcha programas de intervención en preescolares, escolares y adolescentes para promocionar hábitos de alimentación saludables y de actividad física en ambientes apropiados para el óptimo crecimiento y desarrollo de los niños (Peñalvo et al, 2013;Sigman-Grant et al, 2014), así como para prevenir un estado nutricional inadecuado (Céspedes et al, 2013).…”
