摘要:The number of women in Brazil is higher than that of men. The Brazilian population is made up of 51.8% women and 48.2% men. In order to meet this demand, strategies were created to ensure women's health care. The aim of this study was to investigate the publications on women's health in the Brazilian Journal of Obesity, Nutrition and Weight Loss, starting from the relevance of the discussion of nutritional aspects with regard to comprehensive care for women's health. This is a retrospective, bibliographical and exploratory review study, carried out between May and June 2021, with a descriptive approach, in the database "Brazilian Journal of Obesity, Nutrition and Weight Loss" through the descriptors/key words “Women's Health”, “Health”, “Women” and “Women”. In total, nine articles were found. The highest prevalence found were descriptive studies, in several sub-areas of knowledge, such as epidemiological, sociodemographic aspects of physical activity in women, dealing with physical exercise modalities in responses and metabolic adjustments presenting preventive activities with regard to nutritional care that expand care in health in women, avoiding possible harm and delaying the development and aggravation of diseases. It is concluded that the guarantee of health care is based on the multidisciplinary principle and that food issues can interfere with health outcomes, therefore, health professionals must have knowledge about the characteristics of this population and for this to occur, it is important that there is specific knowledge based on the particularities of this population.
