Rischio nazionale di obesità *7,5/10This is a composite ‘obesity risk’ score (out of 10, the highest risk) based on obesity prevalence, rate of increase, likelihood of meeting the 2025 target, treatment indicator and childhood stunting levels.Rischio di obesità infantile *8/11This is a ‘risk score’ for each country’s likelihood of having or acquiring a major childhood obesity problem during the 2020s, taking account of current prevalence levels and risk for future obesity (based on stunting among infants, maternal obesity, maternal smoking, and breastfeeding rates).
*Sulla base di dati stimati. Per maggiori informazioni consultare le Pubblicazioni

Note (disponibile solo in inglese):The socioeconomic status was defined through a questionnaire of economic classification by the Brazilian Association of Research Companies – Associação Brasileira de Empresas de Pesquisa, ABEP. This classification is based on items such as ownership of goods (television, radio, car, vacuum cleaner, VCR and/or DVD player, fridge, freezer and washing machine), services (housemaid), household characteristics (number of bathrooms) and educational level of the head of the household. The total score for each item results in the classification of respondents into seven strata identified as "social classes" A1, A2, B1, B2, C, D, and E(17). For analysis purposes, the eight economic levels, proposed by ABEP, were regrouped and named as follows: A1, A2, and B1 in High Economic Level (H); B2, C1 and C2 in Medium Economic Level (M) and, D and E in Low Economic Level (L).

Brazil bans all advertising directed at children (under 12 years of age) in its constitution through the Child and Adolescent Statute and the National Council for the Rights of Children and Adolescent (CONANDA) Resolution 163 (2014). This resolution can be applied to food publicity, where "abusive publicity" includes any form of market communication (including TV, radio, internet, apps) intended to persuade children and adolescents to consume a product or service. The Conanda resolution is enforced by the Consumer Defense Code (Law 8078/1990) and the Child and Adolescent Statute (Law 8069/1990) but it is widely reported that the the ban is not properly enforced.
