SUMMARY:

The consumption of ultra-processed foods has had a negative impact on the quality of the diet, increasing the risk of health problems and diseases related to overweight in the adult population. Despite this, there is still little evidence that studies the impact of this consumption on maternal and child health, and it is of great importance to systematize this information. The objective of this study was to evaluate, from the literature, the existence of an impact of the consumption of ultra-processed foods on the health of pregnant women, lactating women and children. A systematic review registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) (CRD42021236633) was performed, following the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Metanalysis (PRISMA), in the PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, Scielo and CAPES directory. The eligibility criteria adopted were: a) to present food consumption by the NOVA classification, b) to be observational studies developed with the population of pregnant women, lactating women or infants/children; and c) analysis of health outcomes (nutritional and diseases) associated with UPF consumption. All data were analyzed and extracted into a structured spreadsheet by two independent reviewers. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (Rob 2). The searches retrieved 8.294 studies and 24 met the eligibility criteria. Most of the included studies were cohort studies (n=14, 58.3%), had pregnant women as a population (n=13, 54.2%) and only two studies evaluated UPF consumption in infants and lactating women. Panoramically, it was observed that the greater participation of UPF in the diet of the populations studied has been associated with different maternal and child outcomes, such as increased weight gain, adiposity, fetal growth-restricted, cognitive development, smaller diet quality, early weaning and satiety, metabolic alterations, diseases, lower availability of vitamin E in breastmilk, and consumption of plastic originated from packaging. Only one of the included studies did not show high methodological quality. Despite the limited literature on UPF consumption and its health outcomes in the maternal-infant population, higher UPF consumption had a negative impact on nutrition indicators and disease development at all stages of life studied. Considering the expressive participation of these foods in the diet, other studies should be conducted to further investigate the impact of UPF consumption on different health indicators, especially in the lactation phase for this was the one to present the most important knowledge gap.
