Report: Other factors for childhood obesity

Did you believe your BMI which has been measured? This article is about the fact that there is no evidence that children with a high BMI (body-mass index) should lose their weight. The BMI is still useful, but it just needs more evidence. The pediatricians also have misunderstanding about how to define the obese children. They always use the weight and height for distinguishing the obese and lean, but it can’t be used this way to define the obese children.


It’s not a good phenomenon about too many obese children now. Because parents don’t care about what kind of food their children have. So children don’t know how they can eat healthier. It’s a serious problem in more developed countries now.
