Hello/Intro VendingReturn to index of stories... |
Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook. With children back in school and family activities now in overdrive-- do you know what your kids are eating during the day? and, is it healthy? Childhood Obesity has reached epidemic proportions. 20 years ago, 5% of American children were overweight. Today 15% of kids between 6 and 19 are overweight --and another 15% are headed that way. Schools -- have become nutritional disaster areas. The state's Healthy Schools Coalition is fighting back -- launching programs to improve diet and exercise among all students. We traveled to Rochester recently to find out about a new pilot program aimed at cutting the number of super-sized kids. |
Intro ExerciseReturn to index of stories... |
Junk Food isn't the only culprit. Lack of excercise is also a contributing factor in the Childhood Obesity epidemic. In 1969, 80-percent of kids played sports every day -- today, only 20% do. Should getting kids MOVING. be part of a school's educational mission? Here to talk about that are: Doctor Charles Cappetta, a pediatrician at the Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinic in Nashau, Louise McCormack, a Professor of Physical Education at Plymouth State University, and Rae Pica, author of "Your Active Child." 1 DR CAPPETTA: Our Love Affair with Sugar has led to ever-expanding waistlines. Kids are getting fatter younger --and sicker younger. What kinds of health complications are you seeing in kids as a result? Is Diabetes on the rise? |
