Association of parents' physical activity and weight status with obesity and metabolic risk of their offspring
CIENCIA & SAUDE COLETIVA(2022)
Abstract
Our aim was to analyze the joint as-sociation of parental characteristics and offspring obesity indicators with metabolic risk in adoles-cents. A cross-sectional study was carried out with 972 adolescents and their parents. We observed that overweight adolescents who have a normal weight mother show lower metabolic risk in com-parison with their counterparts with overweight mothers. In conclusion, mother's weight status moderates the relationship between offspring' obesity indicators and metabolic risk in adoles-cents.
