Children With Low Self-Control More Likely To Become Overweight Pre-Teens

Go figger.
"Young children who do not display an ability to regulate their behavior or to delay gratification in exchange for a larger reward appear predisposed to gain extra weight by their pre-teen years, according to two reports published in the April issue of Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.

'Obesity in childhood and adolescence appears to track into adulthood, increasing the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and certain cancers in adulthood,' the authors write as background information in one of the articles. 'To mount effective preventive efforts, we need better information regarding the factors involved in the etiology of childhood overweight and obesity.'"
Hey, moron authors!

You do not "need better information regarding the factors involved in the etiology of childhood overweight and obesity."

You need to accept that there is no other cause to overweight/obesity at any age than more Calories in than out.

And that self-control is the cure.

Unless, of course, you want to steal more research money to investigate the genetics of self-control.

A move of such stupidity, I would not put it past the IMHO crooked researchers involved in fatso research.

And for which we will all pay.
