Child Obesity And The Factors That Result In A Child Being Obese

As rates for obesity continue to soar in in the United States it is no surprise that we are seeing a rising number of obese children. But just what is it that results in childhood obesity?

The answer is that there is no single cause of child obesity and there are numerous different things that produce obesity in our children.


> For example, it is often the case that a child with overweight or obese parents will also be overweight or obese and this suggests that there could be an inherited or genetic factor to obesity. But, despite the fact that this is presently being looked at, no genetic link has been found yet and it is felt much more likely that it is the eating habits within the family that cause obesity and not genetics.

In recent years there has been a marked shift in eating habits with fast food restaurants appearing on every corner, junk food widely available and our supermarket shelves bulging with 'convenience' foods that are more often than not very high in sugar. The days of home cooked meals are a thing of the past in many households and have been superceded by take-away food or microwave meals. In fact, all too many parents are now electing to take their children out for a hamburger instead of cooking a meal at home not just because it is simpler than cooking but also because they do not have to wash up!



Additionally, we have experienced a dramatic drop in levels of activity amongst many groups of children, aided in no small measure by the introduction of video gaming machines, computers and now the ever present mobile phone. Of course, as activity levels have dropped so our children have also lost their normal ability to burn up the calories gained from eating an increasing amount of fast food.

The Internet, television, magazines and other forms of media also play a part as they dominate our childrens' lives and junk food, fast food and candy manufacturers are not slow in jumping onto this bandwagon and take full advantage of the advertising opportunity that the media provides. Many people would argue that commercials have done more to fuel the increase in child obesity that just about anything else in recent years.

There are also clearly several social factors at play in the world today and many children nowadays simply eat as a result of boredom. What is more, they will turn to food if they find themselves angry, stressed, depressed or anxious.

Right now a lot of research is being directed towards the cause of child obesity and its treatment and much of this research is focused on solving the problem through diet and exercise once presented with an obese child. But, with child obesity continuing to increase at a disturbing rate, perhaps it is now time to attack the roots of child obesity and to prevent our children from suffering from obesity in the first place.
