Objective: Evaluate the association between the nutritional status of peruvian youth that belong to a twoparent family and their nutritional status after seven years of analysis. Methods: Analysis of secondary data from the Young Lives database. It included peruvian participants that were eight years old in 2002 and were followed up until 2009. This is a prospective longitudinal study. The outcome variable is the Body Mass Index (BMI) in young people and the exposure variable was having two-parent and non-two parent families. Results: A total of 625 adolescents were analyzed. From that total, 53,0% were male. The median of age was 8 years old (SD 0,05). The ones that belonged to a two parent families were 79,5%. The BMI average in men was 20.5 kg/m2 and was significantly lower average than women (21.7 kg/m2) (p<0.001). In non-two parent families the average BMI was 21,2 kg/m2 against 21,0 kg/m2 for two-parent families, the difference was not significant (p=0,447) Conclusion: No association was found between the nutritional status of young Peruvians belonging to a biparental family at 8 years of age and their nutritional status seven years later.
