ABSTRACT
With increased globalization, Latin America is experiencing
transitions from traditional lifestyle and dietary practices to
those found in higher income countries. Healthy diets, physical
activity and optimal body fat can prevent approximately 15%
of cancers in low-income and 20% in high-income countries.
We discuss links between diet, obesity, physical activity and
cancer, emphasizing strategies targeting children to decrease
risk of obesity, control obesity-related risk factors, and reduce
sedentary lifestyles, as this will have high impact on adult cancer
risk. We focus on individual behaviors, economic, cultural
and societal changes that may guide future interventions in
the Americas.
