Resumen

ESTRADA-VELASCO, Barbara Ixchel et al. Childhood obesity is associated to the interaction between firmicutes and high energy food consumption. Nutr. Hosp. [online]. 2015, vol.31, n.3, pp.1074-1081. ISSN 1699-5198.  https://dx.doi.org/10.3305/nh.2015.31.3.8302.

Introductión: Obesity is a serious public health problem in Mexico, the National Health and Nutrition Survey (ENSANUT 2012) reported a 34.4% prevalence of overweight, and obesity in children aged 5-11. Recent research has suggested that the gut microbiota may be a risk factor of obesity through its influence on human metabolism. Aim of the study: To evaluate association between the intestinal microbiota profile and obesity among children and whether this association is modified depending on the feeding pattern of a sample of schoolchildren from Mexico City. Metodology and Results: Cross-sectional study on 1042 children aged 6-14 years; physical activity questionnaire, personal medical history and heredofamilial of obesity and type 2 diabetes were administered to all the children. Eating patterns was performed by principal component analysis (PCA). The association between intestinal microbiota and overweight / obesity depending on diet was assessed with logistic regression models. Conclusion: Our results shows that the interaction between the intestinal microbiota and diet, particularly high in fats and simple carbohydrates increases the chance of developing obesity.
