Childhood Obesity

October 19th, 2006

Make weight loss a family affair! Preventing and treating childhood obesity requires the entire family. 

Children can’t change their exercise and eating habits by themselves.  They need the help from their families and other caregivers.  This is why successful prevention and treatment of childhood obesity starts at home.

Childhood obesity is usually caused by kids eating too much and exercising too little.  So creating new family habits around healthy eating and increased physical activity can help a child lose weight and can also improve the health of other members of the family.
