Abstract	The prevalence of overweight and obesity have increased signifi cantly worldwide and is considered as a priority public health issue. Obesity is a multifactorial disease in which genetic factors and the infl uence of an obesogenic environment characterized by the wide availability of food, decreased opportunities for physical activity and sedentary lifestyles. Overweight and obesity in children can impair their physical and psychological health in the short, medium and long term. Disorders such as dyslipidemia, hyperinsulinemia, glucose intolerance, and other cardiovascular risk factors such as prehypertension and hypertension occur more frequently in children and adolescents with obesity. The treatment of obesity is chronic and complex, and requires the participation of the entire family. Therefore, prevention is considered as the most cost-effective strategy and sustainable to abate the problem of childhood obesity. Prevention includes changes in lifestyle and eating habits, and involves the participation of the whole society. This guide provides criteria for early diagnosis, and the main measures of treatment and prevention of overweight and obesity; is aimed at the pediatric community and medical doctors who treat children in order to help slow the progression of the disease in our community.
