Methods: The method uses in writing this literature review is to review international journal articles taken from various sorces such as Medline NCBI, Embase, Google Scholar with a critical appraisal process.
Discussion: The result of the average eating behavior for school children depends on the available food availability. Consumption of energy-dense foods such as foods and beverages that are high in calories, high in fat, high in sugar tend to experience an increase in calories and cause overnutrition or obesity.
