拉丁美洲儿童超重和肥胖的患病率正在迅速增加，对目前的医疗保健系统构成挑战，并增加了各种疾病的风险。为了了解拉丁美洲儿童肥胖的因素，本文回顾了目前的营养状况和身体活动情况，国家之间和国家内部的差异以及确保充足营养和身体活动的潜在挑战。在整个地区，儿童面临着营养不良和体重过重的双重负担。虽然解决营养不良问题的努力取得了显著进展，但儿童肥胖症正在上升，这是由于饮食倾向于能量密集、营养不良的食物以及久坐不动的生活方式。在过去十年中，社会经济条件、城市化、零售食品和公共交通的变化都导致了该地区儿童肥胖。需要更多的研究和研究能力来解决这一日益严重的流行病，特别是在设计，实施和评估循证肥胖预防干预措施的影响方面。
The prevalence of overweight and obesity is rapidly increasing among Latin American children, posing challenges for current healthcare systems and increasing the risk for a wide range of diseases. To understand the factors contributing to childhood obesity in Latin America, this paper reviews the current nutrition status and physical activity situation, the disparities between and within countries and the potential challenges for ensuring adequate nutrition and physical activity. Across the region, children face a dual burden of undernutrition and excess weight. While efforts to address undernutrition have made marked improvements, childhood obesity is on the rise as a result of diets that favour energy‐dense, nutrient‐poor foods and the adoption of a sedentary lifestyle. Over the last decade, changes in socioeconomic conditions, urbanization, retail foods and public transportation have all contributed to childhood obesity in the region. Additional research and research capacity are needed to address this growing epidemic, particularly with respect to designing, implementing and evaluating the impact of evidence‐based obesity prevention interventions.
