The obesity and the overweight are highly prevalent factors of risk in individuals with Down syndrome which accent the
risk of morbidity and mortality in the carriers of this syndrome. This work had as objective main to verify the influence
of the energy balance in the obesity and overweight of Brazilian childrenand adolescents between 07 and 17 years of age
Down syndrome. We evaluated 22 children and adolescents (4 girls and 18 boys). As predictors of adiposity, overweight, BMI,
percentage of fat (%G) and sum of skinfolds (�£DB). As for indicators of physical activity, was the calculated energy expenditure
through the recall 24 hours of Bouchard and for the Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), the equation of Schofield-HW. The method
used for evaluation of the energy ingestion was the recall 24 hours. For %G, it was observed that 50% of the children and
adolescents with Down syndrome are fat and inside of this group it was verified condition of obesity in 25% and 56% of the girls
and boys respectively. The energy balance daily medium for the total of children and adolescents was of(-207 kcal). These results
had been also found to if comparing the sorts. The calculation of the correlation between energy rocking and IMC, SDB and
%G did not reveal significantly different of zero, corroborating the hypothesis of that incidence of obesity and overweight is not
associated with the energy balance in children and adolescents Downsyndrome.
