Obesity in Children


Question
I am doing a paper on obesity in children.  What are the main causes of obesity in children and how can it be combated?

Answer
Hey, Linda. Thanks for your question.    

Main reasons for obesity are typical and not surprising: (1) sedetary life style due to internet, video games and otehr tempations to stay at home and not be active which interferes with healthy metabolism. (2) junk food - high calorie, low vitamin food that is readily available to children anywhere (at school, at home and on the streets) and finally (3) lack of timely education at school and by parents on psychological and physical effects of obesity, it's causes, and the importance of active lifestyle.

Thanks, and I hope this helps. If not, please follow up.
