Childhood Obesity: Your Kids And Heart Disease!
Shockingly, it is estimated that 22 million of the world's
children under 5 are overweight or obese and approximately one
in four American children are overweight. The problem this
presents is that these children are more susceptible to
pediatric hypertension, type II diabetes, greater risk of heart
disease, the extra burden of weight on joints, not to mention,
the social effects with peers. The medical community has already
indicated a surge in childhood diabetes and of the children
diagnosed with Type II diabetes, 85% are obese.
Childhood obesity can be caused by a combination of many
factors, but certainly two of the biggest contributors are lack
of exercise and poor dietary habits.
Today's youth spend several hours a day in front of televisions
and computers. These activities, along with the lack of physical
exercise programs at school, are not providing the energy the
body requires to burn off calorie intake. Plus, energy levels
continue to decline as additional weight is gained, inhibiting
the desire to spend the recommended 30 minutes of daily exercise
(in addition to what the child may receive during school). The
benefits to physical exercise are extremely important though as
it will reduce the risk of developing heart disease, high blood
pressure and high cholesterol, along with reducing or
maintaining body weight. Additional benefits include,
building
healthy muscles, bones and joints and improving depression and
over all psychological well-being.
Dietary habits contribute to obesity as well and have changed
greatly over time. Due to the busy lifestyles of two income
households, the demand for quick and easy microwaveable food,
fast food and snack foods have increased drastically. Also, many
children are substituting soda and vending machine snacks for
school lunches. Unfortunately, most of these types of foods are
high in salt, sugar, fat or calories and have low nutrient
content.
Bottom line, children look for role models. If they see the
adults around them exercising regularly and eating a balanced
diet, they will be more apt to do those things as well. Fun
family activities could include a walk, a bike ride, playing at
the playground and shooting hoops on the basketball court.
A final note, if your child is overweight, consult your doctor.
Rare hormonal disorders and/or other medical conditions can be
diagnosed with blood tests and medical exams.
