Differences in Metabolic Disease Markers in Healthy and Obese 7-To-9-Year-Olds Identified

More nutritional child abuse.

Research led by Dr. Melinda Sothern, Professor of Public Health and Jim Finks Endowed Chair in Health Promotion at LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans, has found that obese 7-9-year-old children had nearly three times the liver fat and almost double the belly fat of their nonobese counterparts and that insulin resistance was more than double and insulin sensitivity less than half respectively. The study is the first to use a combination of advanced measurements in healthy obese and nonobese children in this age group prior to entering puberty.

Kudos, fatsos.

You child abusers, you.

Stop nutritional child abuse.
