The impact of non-nutritive sweeteners (NNS) on energy intake and body weight is not clear although they provide no energy compared to sucrose.
To establish if there are differences in the consumption of NNS as per the nutritional status and its association with overweight.
POPULATION, MATERIAL AND METHODS: Cross-sectional study including 571 male and female students aged 10-16 years old from the cities of Viña del Mar and Santiago de Chile who were administered an adapted food survey using pictures of NNS-containing products; nutritional status was assessed and students with overweight and obesity were categorized as a the overweight group.
Of all surveyed students, 96.6% consume NNS on a daily basis. The comparison between the total NNS intake by nutritional status showed that male students in the overweight group consume more sucralose (p < 0.05) and saccharin (p < 0.01), while the comparison of NNS intake per kilogram of body weight showed that NNS consumption was higher in the overweight group (p < 0.05). Among female students, the normal weight group showed a higher consumption of acesulfame K per kilogram of body weight than the overweight group (p < 0.05). No association was observed in the studied sample between the overall NNS intake and obesity.
Of all surveyed students, 96.6% consume NNS on a daily basis, and no association was found between NNS consumption and overweight.
非营养性甜味剂（NNS）对能量摄入和体重的影响尚不清楚，尽管与蔗糖相比它们不提供能量。
根据营养状况确定非营养性甜味剂的消费量是否存在差异及其与超重的关联。
人群、材料与方法：横断面研究，纳入了来自智利瓦尔帕莱索市和圣地亚哥市的571名10 - 16岁的男女学生，使用含非营养性甜味剂产品的图片进行适应性食物调查；评估营养状况，超重和肥胖的学生被归类为超重组。
在所有接受调查的学生中，96.6%的学生每天食用非营养性甜味剂。按营养状况对非营养性甜味剂总摄入量进行比较，结果显示超重组的男学生摄入更多的三氯蔗糖（p < 0.05）和糖精（p < 0.01），而按每千克体重计算的非营养性甜味剂摄入量比较显示，超重组的非营养性甜味剂消费量更高（p < 0.05）。在女学生中，正常体重组每千克体重的乙酰磺胺酸钾消费量高于超重组（p < 0.05）。在所研究的样本中，未观察到非营养性甜味剂总摄入量与肥胖之间存在关联。
在所有接受调查的学生中，96.6%的学生每天食用非营养性甜味剂，未发现非营养性甜味剂消费与超重之间存在关联。
