General objective: To determine if there is a relationship between eating habits with overweight and childhood obesity in schoolchildren aged 8 to 11 years of the Colegio “Santa Úrsula“ in the province of Sullana, Piura during 2020. Material and method: We conducted a study transversal to schoolchildren with the application of virtual questionnaires to know their eating habits and obtain anthropometric data that allowed us to know the Body Mass Index (BMI). All the information was analyzed in tests such as ANOVA, Post hoc Tukey b and binary logistic regression. Results: From a population made up of 211 schoolchildren between the ages of 8 and 11 from the “Santa Úrsula” school, we surveyed 83 male students and 128 female students. We had as a result that 83.9% of schoolchildren have healthy habits, while 16.1% have unhealthy habits. They represent 35.5% as normal; 40.8% overweight and 23.7% obese with respect to the BMI classification states. According to bivariate analysis, there is no direct relationship between unhealthy eating habits with overweight and childhood obesity. In the multivariate analysis, it was not found that the variables age and healthy habits are associated with the variable of interest. Conclusion: Neither overweight nor obesity is related to the school's eating habits. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in 8 to 11-yearold schoolchildren from Colegio “Santa Úrsula” was high; 4 out of 6 schoolchildren are overweight and 2 out of 10 are obese. The prevalence of healthy habits was more than 80% of the school population aged 8 to 11, while not even 20% had unhealthy habits.
