Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate physical activity and nutritional status in children with precocious puberty.
Methods: The current research was of a descriptive-correlation type. The present research population was children aged 7 to 11 years living in Qazvin city, from which 100 people (70 girls and 30 boys) were selected as research participants in a non-probabilistic way. In order to collect data, 24-hour food recall questionnaires, nutritional behavior and IPAQ physical activity questionnaires were used.
Results: The findings of the research showed that the amount of physical activity and sleep of children with normal puberty was higher than children with premature puberty (p=0.001). The nutritional status including the consumption of fruit (p=0.006), vegetables (p=0.009), milk (p=0.001) in children with normal puberty was more than children with precocious puberty, while the consumption of fast food (p=0.037) and snacks (p=0.009) was the opposite. The consumption of meat (p=0.124) and bread and cereals (p=0.564) was not significantly different in the two groups. Weight (p=0.005) and height (p=0.022) of children with precocious puberty were more and taller than children with normal puberty. There was no significant difference in the use of electronic devices between children with normal puberty and children with premature puberty (p=0.189).
Conclusion: The status of physical activity, nutrition (consumption of fruits, vegetables and milk) and sleep in children with normal puberty was better than children with precocious puberty. Children with normal puberty had healthier lives.
