 Introduction
Adolescents suffer from many
changes, especially because they are
in this critical stage. The body begins
to evolve, like the mind, proto everyone
makes a 360 degree turn and nothing
is the same.

It is a crucial moment for

development, as well as decision
making. This causes an avalanche of
problems and others, which affect the
health of young people. It is important
to pay attention to what is done
during this period, because everything
affects the future.

Effects of the pandemic on teens

interactions are a critical part
of development during adolescence.
But these opportunities have been
limited during the pandemic,”
Freed says. “Many teens may feel
frustrated, anxious and
disconnected due to social
distancing and missing usual
social outlets, like sports, Parents in the poll say their kids seem
extracurricular activities and hardest hit by changes in social

impact on their teen’s connections to
friends.

say their teen has shown
signs of a new or worsening
mental health condition since
the start of the pandemic in
March 2020, according to
the C.S. Mott Children’s
Hospital National Poll on
Children’s Health at
Michigan Medicine. Parents
of teen girls were more likely
to say their child had a
new onset or worsening of
depressive symptoms and
anxiety than parents of teen
boys.
During the COVID-19 crisis, there
has also been an increase in
consumption of sugary drinks (35%),
snacks and sweets (32%), and fast
food and convenience products
(29%); and a decrease in
consumption of fruits and
vegetables (33%) and water (12%).

Around 1 in 4 (23%) of U-Reporters

participants say they saw more
ads for unhealthy products in the
media during the pandemic.

present in more than 75 countries
with more than 13 million
adolescents and young people
registered globally.

They mentioned a decrease in

physical activity. 52% reported
that they were less physically
active compared to pre-pandemic
times. While 33% reported no
physical activity and 25% were
less than one hour per week
physically active. In the other
hand, only 7% did practice more
than 6 hours per week of physical
