For eating habits, there were significantly more boys than girls who met the recommended scores for healthier foods, but there were significantly more girls than boys who exceeded the score of three days of intake per week for unhealthiest foods. The prevalence of sedentary behavior, physical inactivity and unhealthy eating habits appear to be moderately high, but physical and nutritional education programs are needed to promote an active living and a healthy eating.El Oirdi HamidBouziani AminaEl Oirdi AzizMostyafi JaouadHamrani AbdeslamEl Kharrim KhadijaBelghyti IdrissEDP Sciencesarticlephysical inactivityeating habitssedentary behaviorsadolescentsmoroccoEnvironmental sciencesGE1-350ENFRE3S Web of Conferences, Vol 319, p 01022 (2021)
