Obesity in childhood is a major medical problem that affects children and adolescents. It's especially concerning because extra pounds frequently set children on the path to health problems that were formerly thought to be adult issues - diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. Obesity in childhood can also lead to low self-esteem and depression. Improving your entire family's food and exercise habits is one of the most effective techniques for reducing childhood obesity. Childhood obesity treatment and prevention protects your child's health now and in the future. Not all youngsters who carry additional pounds are obese. Some children have larger-than-average frame sizes. And at different phases of growth, children often carry varying levels of body fat. As a result, you may not be able to tell if your child's weight is a health concern just on how he or she seems. The standard measure of overweight and obesity is the body mass index (BMI), which provides a guideline of weight in relation to height. Your child's doctor can utilize growth charts, the BMI, and, if necessary, other tests to determine whether your child's weight poses a health risk.
