Overweight children eat healthier food

So much for "healthy foods."

A new study has found that obese children eat more healthy foods such as fruit, vegetable and fish along with low energy cheese and yoghurt in comparison to normal weight children.

The research has been conducted by Telemark University College and the Norwegian Institute of Public Health.

The study claimed that overweight children drank juice and artificially sweetened soft drinks more often, while the normal weight children drank carbonated drinks and ate unhealthy foods and processed foods.

The results suggest that both parents and children have increased awareness of food choices when children are overweight.

Overweight children are also less physically active and more likely to have obese parents than normal weight children.

Calories in vs. Calories out.

Done.
