“…Whole-ofenvironment (sometimes called multilevel or systems) approaches have been found to be the most effective for obesity prevention in childcare settings, whereby all aspects of policy, food provision, staff practice and teaching, and communication with families and the wider community function collectively to support and reinforce healthy eating behaviours. 4,5 Table 1 presents a list of the components found to be effective within ECE nutrition settings for obesity prevention.

RESUMENLa obesidad infantil representa uno de los mayores problemas de salud pública a nivel mundial. En el presente artículo se exponen las intervenciones para prevenir el sobrepeso y obesidad en niños menores de cinco años. Las intervenciones dirigidas a prevenir la obesidad en infantes fueron: promoción de la lactancia materna, vigilancia del crecimiento del niño y promoción de una adecuada alimentación complementaria, a través de la consejería nutricional con enfoque de alimentación responsiva, brindadas en distintos escenarios como el centro de salud o basados en el hogar a través de visitas domiciliarias. Las intervenciones dirigidas a prevenir obesidad en los preescolares incluyen las intervenciones con componentes de actividad física y nutrición que involucren activamente a los padres. La calidad de la evidencia de la mayoría de estudios es alta debido a que proviene de ensayos clínicos controlados, revisiones sistemáticas y metaanálisis. Todas estas intervenciones se realizan o podrían ser replicadas en nuestro país, mediante una adecuada contextualización. Palabras clave: Obesidad pediátrica, Sobrepeso, Nutrición infantil, Programas y políticas de nutrición y alimentación.

The present study describes the interventions used to prevent overweight and obesity in children younger than 5 years. The objective of the interventions was to stimulate breastfeeding, monitor the child's growth, and promote adequate complementary feeding by means of nutritional counseling using a responsive feeding approach in different settings, including health centers and residences. The interventions included physical activity and nutritional counseling, with the active participation of the parents. The quality of evidence from most studies was high because the evidence was derived from controlled clinical trials, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. All interventions were conducted or could be replicated in Peru by adequate contextualization. Keywords

“…Childhood obesity can seriously impact public health matters, not only causing enormous medical expenses, but also resulting in various illnesses over the lifetime [4,5]. For these reasons, numerous studies have focused on childhood obesity prevention and management intervention [6,7,8,9,10]. Also, research on childhood obesity has highlighted the necessity of combined dietary-behavioral-physical activity intervention along with family-based education to foster a supportive home environment, which is integrated with a child’s school system [11,12,13,14,15,16].…”

Background: Childhood obesity is a critical health issue, both currently and for the foreseeable future. To prevent obesity, behavior changes are essential. Smartphones can be a good tool, as the number of child smartphone users is rapidly increasing. We have developed a mobile platform system named “HAPPY ME,” which is a smartphone application coupled with a wearable device, designed to improve healthy behaviors to prevent childhood obesity. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of obesity prevention among children 10–12 years of age using HAPPY ME. Methods: A total of 1000 participants, all fifth and sixth graders from four schools, were assigned to either control or intervention groups by school. Students in the intervention group used HAPPY ME. The study comprises a safety test, a 12-week efficacy test, and a six-month follow-up test to determine the long-term effects of preventive intervention via the integrated service platform. The integrated service platform aims to facilitate child-parent-school participation, involving the child-parent mobile application, a child-teacher mobile web, and a school website. Primary outcome measures are behavioral changes, including healthy eating, increased physical activity, and fitness. Secondary outcome measures are changes in anthropometric parameters (body weight, height, body mass index z-score, and waist circumference), body mass index (BMI) percentiles (obesity rate), and psychological perceptions among participants. Conclusions: The results of this study will offer evidence of the effectiveness of a mobile platform service with a multi-component intervention program based on a comprehensive approach.
