Adolescence is a transition period from children to adult where they are easily influenced by the surrounding environment, easy to follow the latest trends where it is a determining factor for the quality of adolescents, such as the incidence of overweight in adolescents caused by lack of fiber consumption so that adolescents prefer fast food rather than fruit and vegetables. This study aims to determine the relationship between fiber consumption and the incidence of overweight in adolescent girls in Aceh Barat District. This research is a cross-sectional study with the sample of 50 adolescent girls aged 15-18 years old. Data was collected by means of a 24-hour food recall, weighing, and measuring their body height.
