Although evidence is limited, physical activity has also been associated with a lower risk of obesity in children and adolescents. The WHO recommends that adolescents should do at least 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity daily.

An overview of national dietary patterns can be broadly shown by national population-level data for the consumption of food groups and items that are associated with overweight and obesity, such as sugar, salt and ultra-processed food and drink (UPFD). Where consumption data itself is not available, proxies such as sales per capita and food supply are often used to produce estimates instead. consumption is generally higher in Eastern Europe and the Western Pacific.
