Introduction: Overweight and obesity is a serious global health problem in minors related to multiple
chronic degenerative or fatal diseases.
Aim: To analyze the results of available scientific studies of educational interventions in the
management of overweight or obesity in adolescents.
Methodology: Those studies found in a database between 2014-2019 that performed intervention or
management of overweight or obesity in a population between 6 and 18 years of age were included.
Results and Discussion: Fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria of which only three performed a
probabilistic sampling being these more significant. Different types of interventions were identified
from educational, cognitive-behavioural and physical activity promotion. The variables with the
greatest significant difference were body composition and waist circumference, the Body Mass Index
still has no significant difference.
Conclusion: Educational interventions achieve an important role in the management of overweight or
obesity having significant changes in the short, medium and long term.
