To systematically assess the quality of online information related to weight loss that Spanish speakers in the US are likely to access. We evaluated the accessibility and quality of information for websites that were identified from weight loss queries in Spanish and compared this to previously published results in English. The content was scored with respect to 5 dimensions: nutrition, physical activity, behavior, pharmacotherapy, and surgical recommendations. 66 websites met eligibility criteria (21 commercial, 24 news/media, 10 blogs, 0 medical/government/university, 11 unclassified sites). Of 16 possible points, mean content quality score was 3.4 (SD=2.0). Approximately 1.5% of sites scored greater than 8 (out of 12) on nutrition, physical activity, and behavior. Unsubstantiated claims were made in 94% of the websites. Content quality scores varied significantly by type of website, (P< 0.0001) with unclassified websites scoring the highest (mean=6.3, SD=1.4) and blogs scoring the lowest (mean=2.2, SD=1.2). All content quality scores were lower for Spanish websites relative to English websites. Weight loss information accessed in Spanish web searches is suboptimal and relatively worse than weight loss information accessed in English, suggesting US Spanish speakers accessing weight loss information online may be provided with incomplete and inaccurate information.
