- Summary:
- More than five million American children and teens are considered overweight or obese, with resulting health issues including Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, breathing and heart problems. This program explores causes of childhood obesity, including the impact of larger food portions and reduced physical activity, and demonstrates how today's American lifestyle of fast food, driving instead of walking and activities such as video games have affected children's health. Excellent for support groups and for professional training.
