The Chilean Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery, together with other scientific societies, led a process for adapting the Canadian clinical practice guideline for obesity in adults for Chile. The aim of the Canadian guideline, among its main objectives, was to propose changes in obesity management using a chronic disease framework and focusing on improving patient-centered health outcomes, rather than focusing on weight loss alone.

Using evidence-informed policies to tackle overweight and obesity in Chile

Overweight and obesity are a global epidemic with rates having risen to alarming levels in both developed and developing countries. Chile has been no exemption, with sharp increases in obesity prevalence, especially among school-age children. This paper describes the policy actions and strategies implemented to tackle this major public health concern in Chile over the last 10 years, and highlights the main challenges and nuances of the process. Chile has taken policy action that includes front-of-package labelling, advertising regulations, and school-food restrictions. New policies focus on the social determinants of health as they relate to food environments and people’s behavior. These actions are not only suitable to the current context in Chile, but are also supported by the best available scientific evidence. Moreover, the implementation of these policies has produced a broad debate involving public institutions and the food industry, with discussions issues ranging from property rights to trade barriers. Despite some differences among stakeholders, a valuable political consensus has been achieved, and several international organizations are eager to evaluate the impact of these pioneer initiatives in Latin America.

The Law on Nutritional Composition of Food and its Advertising (Ley 20.606)

The Law on Nutritional Composition of Food and its Advertising (Ley 20.606) mandated Chile's front of pack warning labels and prohibited the marketing of “high in” foods and beverages directed at children and the sales of these products in schools. Law N° 20.606 came into force in 2016. The regulations require labels to highlight food and beverage products with high energy, sugars, saturated fat, or sodium content using a black octagon. This regulation only applies to foods and beverages with added sodium, sugars, or saturated fats.

Choose to Live Healthily" (Elige Vivir Sano)

This is an initiative of the Chilean First Lady in collaboration with government ministries. It promotes healthy eating, physical activity and healthy living. “Hoy empiezo a vivir sano” (Today I will start to live healthily) is the slogan of the 2020 communications campaign launched today by the Social and Family Development Minister, Sebastián Sichel, and the Executive Secretary of Elige Vivir Sano (Choose to live healthily), Daniela Godoy. The campaign will be aired on mainstream media and social networks. It seeks to motivate people to make small changes in their routines to adopt healthier habits and combat excess weight and obesity, conditions that currently affect seven out of ten people over 15 years old in Chile. The actions being promoted include cooking as a family, prioritizing fruits as a snack, going for a walk, playing with children. These actions are easy to carry out and can have a significant impact on the quality of family life.
