Abstract

The high calorie intake resulting from the increased consumption of processed foods, associated with the increase in physical inactivity, is a reflection of the economic and social development that shapes the lifestyle of humans today. Obesity and overweight are consequences of this lifestyle that have become a global public health problem and currently affect about 1.9 billion people worldwide.
