Studying The Causes Of Obesity In Aboriginal Children

Stupid research, again. Though the researchers get the problem correct, when they start to wax excusinator, it all falls apart.

Here is the part they got mostly right.

To fully understand the causes of the obesity epidemic in Aboriginal children requires an understanding of the unique social and historical factors that shape the Aboriginal community. A review article published in Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism emphasizes that early childhood obesity prevention efforts should begin focusing with the parents before and during pregnancy and on breastfeeding initiatives and nutrition in the early childhood development stages.

The breastfeeding part is bull.

The rest of the article is crap.

But the parts about the parents and pregnancy are spot on.
