Abstract

Objective: Relate exposure to Bisphenol A with increasing obesity, as industrialization and obesity are in full swing. Methods: An review was carried out, consulting the PUBMED databases, BIREME and official websites of the Brazilian Association for the Study of Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome (ABESO), Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabology (SBEM) and the Agency National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA) between 2008 and 2017. The descriptors used in the data search were: Bisphenol A and Obesity, Endocrine Disruptors and Bisphenol A, Xenoestrogens and Obesity, and Obesity. Results: A total of 30 articles were analyzed, showing evidence of correlation between BPA exposure and obesity. Conclusion: The increase in obesity is not only related to the positive energy balance, but also to the exposure of the population to chemical compounds that modulate the action of endocrine hormones favoring weight gain, and that the current lifestyle contributes so much to obesity as well as increased production of plastic packaging and thus increases exposure to BPA.
