Resumo: | Orthorexia nervosa (ON) is a new type of eating behavior abnormality characterized by an exaggerated concern with food quality and dietary purity. This can have consequences in several areas of the lives of affected individuals. Health students are considered the most vulnerable to develop risk behaviors for ON. Thus, through a literature review, the objective is to describe the studies developed in the national territory, on the risk behavior for ON among university students in the health area. The search process was carried out in June and July 2021 in the BIREME, Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO and Google Scholar databases, using the descriptors Orthorexia, Orthorexia nervosa, Orthorexia nervosa “and” nutrition students, Orthorexia nervosa “and” students and their respective terms in english. 252 studies were found on the topic, after applying the exclusion criteria, eight studies were selected. From the data analysis, it was found that students in the health area have a higher prevalence for risk behavior of ON, more in the nutrition course, which may be related to the greater knowledge of healthy eating and its health benefits. Females were the most affected in the studies, but it may also be present among male students. However, all the characteristics of this behavior are not yet well defined, being necessary to carry out further research in the area in order to better elucidate this new change in eating behavior. |

Esto puede tener consecuencias en varias áreas de la vida de las personas afectadas. Los estudiantes de salud son considerados los más vulnerables a desarrollar conductas de riesgo para ON. Así, a través de una revisión bibliográfica, el objetivo es describir los estudios desarrollados en el territorio nacional, sobre las conductas de riesgo para ON entre estudiantes universitarios del área de la salud. El proceso de búsqueda se realizó en junio y julio de 2021 en las bases de datos BIREME, Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO y Google Scholar, utilizando los descriptores Orthorexia, Orthorexia nervosa, Orthorexia nervosa and Nutrition Students, Orthorexia nervosa and Students y sus respectivos términos en inglés. Se encontraron 252 estudios sobre el tema, después de aplicar los criterios de exclusión, se seleccionaron ocho estudios. Del análisis de los datos se encontró que los estudiantes del área de la salud tienen mayor prevalencia de conductas de riesgo de ON, más en el curso de nutrición, lo que puede estar relacionado con el mayor conocimiento sobre alimentación saludable y sus beneficios para la salud. Las mujeres fueron las más afectadas en los estudios, pero también puede estar presente entre los estudiantes varones. Sin embargo, todas las características de este comportamiento aún no están bien definidas, siendo necesario realizar más investigaciones en el área para dilucidar mejor este nuevo cambio en el comportamiento alimentario.A ortorexia nervosa (ON) é um novo tipo de anormalidade do comportamento alimentar, caracterizada pela preocupação exagerada com a qualidade dos alimentos e pureza da dieta. Esta pode trazer consequências em diversas áreas da vida dos indivíduos acometidos. Estudantes da área de saúde são considerados os mais vulneráveis a desenvolver comportamentos de risco para ON. Assim, por meio de uma revisão da literatura, tem-se como objetivo descrever os estudos desenvolvidos em território nacional, sobre o comportamento de risco para ON entre estudantes universitários da área de saúde. O processo de busca foi realizado no mês de junho e julho de 2021 nas bases de dados BIREME, Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO e Google Acadêmico, por meio dos descritores Ortorexia, Ortorexia nervosa, Ortorexia nervosa and estudantes de nutrição, Ortorexia nervosa and estudantes e seus respectivos termos em inglês. Foram encontradas 252 pesquisas sobre o tema, após aplicação dos critérios de exclusão oito pesquisas foram selecionadas. A partir da análise de dados, constatou-se que estudantes da área de saúde têm maior prevalência para comportamento de risco da ON, mais no curso de nutrição, o que pode estar relacionado ao maior conhecimento da alimentação saudável e seus benefícios para a saúde. O sexo feminino foi o mais afetado nos estudos, porém também pode estar presente entre os estudantes do gênero masculino. No entanto, ainda não está bem definido todas as características desse comportamento, sendo necessário a realização de novas pesquisas na área com o objetivo de elucidar melhor essa nova alteração do comportamento alimentar.Research, Society and Development2022-04-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2921310.33448/rsd-v11i6.29213Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 6; e37811629213Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 6; e37811629213Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 6; e378116292132525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/29213/25310Copyright (c) 2022 Emily Porto de Souza; Carlos Alberto Soares da Costahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSouza, Emily Porto de Costa, Carlos Alberto Soares da 2022-05-13T18:04:10Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/29213Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:46:22.066569Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
