Obesity In Kids
Popular Fitness Blog
We know that obesity is a problem for many adults, but it is a growing trend found in
a lot of kids in the US, Canada, European and other countries. A recent study that
looked at 25 countries just came out reveals that by 2010 50% of kids in the
Americas will be obese while 40% will be obese in Europe. Regardless of the exact
accuracy of these numbers, this is a problem and it will eventually cause a strain on
the healthcare systems of these countries.
What the reason for this? It could be due to children eating more junk food and
processed foods (frozen, etc...) instead of eating a good healthy home cooked meal.
Also, lack of exercise. Too many kids, instead of playing sports and exercising, are
playing video games.
