Summary

Obesity is a chronic disease that is highly prevalent in Brazil. It is associated with diabetes and hypertension. Obesity may decrease quality of life. Communication tools, such as mobile devices and social media, are helping to control and prevent obesity. In this 2-arm randomized clinical trial, the investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy of the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population through 8 weekly video nutritional monitoring sessions with nutritionists. Both groups will receive guidance from reference professionals from primary health care (physician and nurse). Throughout the intervention program, both groups will be equally evaluated in order to verify at the end of the study effectiveness in weight loss and life quality improvement.
