"We teach our children how to walk, talk and go to the bathroom, but do we teach them how to eat right? National statistics show that many of us do not. According to the American Obesity Association, an alarming 15.5 percent of children between the ages of six and 11 are considered obese, putting them on a collision course with the nation's biggest killer: heart disease. The power of preventing such a tragedy lies in the hands of parents, according to pediatric health experts.With certainty parents are the number one child abusers with nutritional child abuse the number one type.
'Parents are the gatekeepers and the role models for their children's eating and exercise habits,' says Marjorie Milici, M.D., pediatrician on the medical staff at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas."
But bad diet/weight loss advice is the culprit that prevents people from losing weight and, in fact, causes diet failure.
Do weight loss right and help yourself and your kids.
