Abstract : Adolescents have presented high prevalences of excess weight and a large proportion of these overweight adolescents remain with this condition in adulthood. Also, in this group we highlight the great demand for the practice of ''binge drinking''. In view of the above, the objective of the present study is to analyze whether binge drinking among adolescents is associated with overweight considering Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist Circumference (WC) and Waist-toheight ratio (WHtR).

Keywords : Adolescent, Binge Drinking, Overweight.
