It aimed to know the research production and repercussions of the approaches centered on “mindful eating” and “intuitive eating” in the health of adult individuals. The guiding question was: What are the repercussions of approaches centered on “mindful eating” and “intuitive eating” on the health of adult individuals? For the searches, descriptors were used: mindful eating, intuitive eating and “atenção plena” (mindfulness). The corpus consisted of 20 articles in full, all international, with three categories: Results of approaches centered on mindful eating in mental health; Results of approaches centered on mindful eating in physical health; and Results of intuitive eating-centered approaches to mental and physical health. Interventions based on mindful eating and/or intuitive eating had a positive impact on physical and mental health, improving eating behavior, food choices, reducing levels of emotional eating and stress, helping with weight loss, reducing body mass index and in the treatment of eating disorders, thus, promising strategies to improve the health of adult individuals.
