Methods: SID and Iranmedex databases were systematically searched for the articles containing the term "educational interventions related to nutrition among students "in title and abstract and 23 full text papers having entry criteria were reviewed. Results: Out of 23 studies, 17 caused knowledge promotion, 7 had positive effects on attitude of subjects, and 14 studies improved nutrition behavior of students.

Conclusion: Reviews of interventions shows that role playing is more effective in promoting nutritional knowledge, attitude, and practice than lecture method.
