description The accelerated urban growth promotes sedentary and unhealth life habits that increase childhood overweight and obesity. The objective of this work was to know from an anthropological perspective, the prevalence of excess weight and eating and physical activities habits of children residents in the Urban District and the periphery of the city of La Plata. One hundred and fifty-four males and females (6-13 years old) were analyzed. Approximately 47% presented excess weight. Eating and physical activity habits were relatively healthy and similar in children with adequate nutritional status and with excess weight. However, differences were recognized, depending on the children's place of residence, linked to practices characteristic of obesogenic environments, such as the use of the television during meals, the omission of breakfast, the consumption of foods rich in carbohydrates and the snacks between principal meals.

La urbanización creciente y acelerada, promueve patrones de vida sedentarios y de alimentación poco saludable que incrementan el sobrepeso y la obesidad infantil. Desde una perspectiva antropológica, el objetivo del trabajo fue conocer las prevalencias de exceso de peso y los hábitos alimentarios y de actividad física de niños y niñas residentes en el Casco Urbano y en la periferia de la ciudad de La Plata. Participaron del estudio 154 varones y mujeres (6-13 años), de los cuales 47% presentó exceso de peso. Los hábitos alimentarios y de actividad física fueron, relativamente saludables y similares en los niños con estado nutricional adecuado y con exceso de peso. No obstante, se reconocieron diferencias, según el lugar de residencia, vinculadas con prácticas características de entornos obesogénicos, tales como el uso del televisor durante las comidas, la omisión del desayuno, el consumo de alimentos hipercalóricos y el picoteo entre las comidas principales.  A urbanização crescente e acelerada promove padrões de vida sedentários e hábitos alimentares pouco saudáveis que aumentam o excesso de peso infantil. A partir de uma perspectiva antropológica, o objectivo do trabalho foi conhecer a prevalência do excesso de peso e os hábitos alimentares e de atividade física das crianças que vivem na zona urbana e na periferia da cidade de La Plata. A amostra foi constuída por 154 crianças de ambos os sexos (6-13 anos de idade), dos quais 47% tinham excesso de peso. Os hábitos alimentares e de atividade física foram relativamente saudáveis e semelhantes em crianças com estatuto nutricional adequado e com excesso de peso. No entanto, foram observadas diferenças, dependendo do zona de residência, ligadas a práticas características dos ambientes obesogênico, tais como não tomar café da manhã, comer enquanto se vê televisão, consumir alimentos ricos em hidratos de carbono e comer snacks.
