Summary

Alongside efforts in public health and policy to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic, medical providers seek to play effective roles in prevention and treatment. Limited interventional studies with effective long-term maintenance of weight loss in children are available. Moreover, interventions should focus on modifying lifestyle, by improving also ludic educational training. In fact, the knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and skills developed through effective health programs may result in a better quality of life and empower children to make correct choices to promote the health of the individual the family and the community. For this reason, in a cohort of obese pediatric subjects with visceral adiposity, the aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of an educational training inspired to Mediterranean diet and based on gamification (as "The Mediterranean Goose") with respect to a conventional treatment on weight loss and improvement of cardio-metabolic risk factors.
