This issue brings a Thematic Section with articles that seek to problematize the constructed discourses and images of the body and the subjectivities in contexts of multiple relations, among which are those where the family is inserted; discourses and images circulating in daily life, but also in the academic world, which inform the construction of certain models, concepts and practices related to health and food. This initiative aimed to stimulate, encourage and welcome structured analyzes based on different theoretical and methodological references on the subject, built in the light of broader perspectives, bringing together studies that highlight how stigmatizing manifestations and ways of perceiving the self-image and the image of other impact the subjectivity. These expressions - based on socially constructed images of the body, situated in contexts such as professional practices in different fields permeated by tensions and involving family relations - express, to a great extent, patterns of healthy eating and beauty that deserve the dedication from a research point of view, since they appear before our eyes in a naturalized and apparently crystalline way. From this scenario of themes present in life and daily life, instilled by the most varied representations and contemporary constraints, we find ourselves before a space of reflection on the moralities about food, health, perfect body, obesity, inequalities, consumption of lifestyles and subjectivities.
