Weight‐neutral interventions in young people with high body mass index: A systematic review

AIM: This systematic review explored the feasibility, acceptability and effect on health outcomes of weight‐neutral interventions in health improvement‐seeking young people with overweight/obesity. METHODS: Six databases were searched to March 2021 for health, but not weight, focused interventions (...

Sumario:AIM: This systematic review explored the feasibility, acceptability and effect on health outcomes of weight‐neutral interventions in health improvement‐seeking young people with overweight/obesity. METHODS: Six databases were searched to March 2021 for health, but not weight, focused interventions (PROSPERO, CRD42020152671). Eligible studies recruited young people (10–24 years) with overweight/obesity. The studies were described using narrative synthesis, with numerical results summarised. The quality of included studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tools. RESULTS: Six articles were included, representing three pilot studies. Study 1 (n = 37, 14–17 years) compared a 6‐week mindful eating program with single‐session lifestyle education; Study 2 (n = 35, 14–17 years) compared 12‐week weight‐neutral lifestyle education focused on intuitive eating and carbohydrate quality, with/without guided imagery; and Study 3 (n = 33, 12–17 years) compared a 6‐week mindfulness intervention with cognitive behavioural therapy in adolescents with depressive symptoms at risk of type 2 diabetes. All interventions explored feasibility (intervention group retention 57%–88%, attendance >80%) and reported interventions were acceptable. Studies 1 and 3 reported no change in mindfulness. Study 2 reported an increase (p < 0.05) in intuitive eating following weight‐neutral plus guided imagery (0.32 ± 0.36, Hawks' Scale, score 1–4), compared with weight‐neutral alone (0.15 ± 0.29). Study 1 reported decreased body mass index (p < 0.001) following mindful eating (−1.1 kg/m(2)), compared with single‐session lifestyle education (+0.7 kg/m(2)); Studies 2 and 3 found no change in body mass index or body mass index z‐score. CONCLUSIONS: Weight‐neutral interventions may be feasible and acceptable in adolescents with overweight/obesity in the short term (≤12 weeks), but data are limited.
