Abstract:

The objective of this article was to characterize the scientific production that used a phenomenological framework in the field of Brazilian Nutrition. An exploratory literature review was carried out in the following databases: Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD); CAPES Catalog of Theses and Dissertations; SciELO Brazil; LILACS; PubMed® and Google Scholar. The 19 studies analyzed were published between 2002 and 2024, with a greater location in Salvador, Bahia (n=10; 52.6%) and use of semi-structured interviews (n=19; 100%). The objects of study (hunger, obesity, eating disorders, breastfeeding, healthy eating) are characterized as complex, sensitive and multidimensional themes that make up the nutritional epidemiological scenario of the country, being phenomena that are part of the daily experiences of millions of Brazilians. Among the authors who supported the methodological procedures of the studies, the following stood out in order of frequency: Gadamer, Schutz, Heidegger, Ricoeur and Merlou-Ponty. It is concluded that qualitative research with a phenomenological approach in Nutrition continues to prove itself as a relevant, attractive and promising field of study, and can contribute in a alternative and/or complementary way to the investigation of the country's nutritional problems.
