(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-01-26) Huatay Rojas, Ingrid; Mauricio Alza, Saby Marisol
Octagonal labeling has proven to be an effective strategy in reducing overweight and obesity rates, due to the warnings that come on packages with the image of one or more octagons depending on the snack product that contains critical nutrients such as sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat. If a person is overweight or obese, the possibility of developing diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, among others, increases in the future. That is why this research was born as a contribution of knowledge for people who not only recognize and know octagons, but also They also raise awareness about the content of critical nutrients in relation to the comparison parameters according to the information declared on each product.
