September is Childhood Obesity Awareness Month

So what?
Childhood obesity is increasing at alarming rates, and health authorities are concerned about the implications for weight-related health problems for youth not only later in life, but during childhood as well.

In the past 30 years, childhood obesity rates in the United States have tripled. Now, about one in three children -- more than 22 million youth -- are overweight or obese.

The problem is so great that experts fear one-third of all children who are 10 years old or younger now will contract diabetes at some point in their lives. Overweight children also face higher risks later in life of heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer and even asthma.

The reason for the extra pounds? Children -- and adults, too -- tend to eat more and move less than we ever have.

According to "Let's Move," a national campaign to fight childhood obesity, children today tend to eat up to three snacks a day, adding about 200 calories a day to the diet, compared with one daily snack 30 years ago. About 20 percent of school-age children eat up to six snacks a day.
You can thank, in no small part, AdipOprah, her diet experts and her friend Michellesie "The Cow" Obama for this.

Her diet experts have advocated for the snacks.
