Abstract:

In order to analyze the prevalence of healthy and unhealthy food consumption markers in adolescents according to school administrative dependence and geographic region, a cross-sectional study was carried out with datathe 2019 National School Health Survey (n=129,922). Prevalence and crude-to-adjusted prevalence ratios (crude-to-adjusted PR) were estimated by Poisson regression according to sociodemographic variables, school administration and geographic region. Adolescentsprivate schools had a lower prevalence of consumption of beans (PRadj=0.88; 95%CI=0.86-0.90) and soft drinks (PRadj=0.93; 95%CI=090-0.97), and higher consumption of fruit (PRadj=1.06; 95%CI=1.04-1.09) and vegetables (PRadj=1.09; 95%CI=1.07-1.12) compared to thosepublic schools. Consumption of fruit and vegetables was significantly higher in the South (PRadj=1.28; 95%CI=1.24-1.32) and Midwest (PRadj=1.17; 95%CI=1.13-1.20) regions, respectively. The Center-West region had the highest prevalence of soft drink consumption (PRadj=1.40- 95%CI=1.33-1.46) and sweet treats (PRadj=1.24; 95%CI=1.20-1.28). Adolescentsprivate schools were more protected in terms of healthy consumption, and the Midwest, South and Southeast regions were more exposed to less healthy consumption.
