It was identified that the majority used Instagram (89%) and WhatsApp (84%), between 4 and 8 hours a day (57.6%). The majority (76.09%) followed some profile on social networks that disseminated information about food. When asked if there is someone who motivates them on social networks, 54.35% of respondents answered yes, but 40% said they did not know if such a person had an academic background and 22.86% said they did not. Due to the influence of social networks, 45.65% have consumed supplements, 54.35% food and 41.3% of participants have already followed some type of diet, mainly low carb (47.37%) and high protein (28.95%) diets.
