Childhood Obesity Nature or Nurture?

April 12, 2010 - PRLog -- Communicating healthful family eating has been an area of interest to our clients in various industries to help reduce the rates of obesity, both adult and childhood.

The current childhood obesity epidemic is an on-going concern for parents, community groups, health care professionals, and food retailers alike. We believe that we need a long-term campaign to educate the public about making healthy food choices in order to reduce the rate of childhood obesity. In addition, the eating environment needs to be modified since childhood obesity is a result nurture, parenting, and community programs, and nature, genetic predispositions. We believe that this does not need to be mandated by the government, but instead fueled by the concerns of families, the food industry, and communities.

NutriTalk™ (http://nutritioncommunicationexperts.com/Nutrition-Experts) believes that there various ways to encourage easy access to information that can help families learn how to make healthy lifestyle changes that promote about healthy eating combined with daily physical activity. We look forward to continuing to work in partnership with all the stakeholders, from government, academia and industry, to find effective solutions for reducing childhood obesity( http://nutritioncommunicationexperts.com/Nutrition-Expert...). We continue to advocate comprehensive, long-term strategies, and constructive public policies for improving the health and wellness of all Americans, particularly youth, by promoting science- and behavior-based solutions focused on the critical balance between fitness and nutrition 9http://nutritioncommunicationexperts.com/Nutrition-Expert...).

That will require easy access to information to help families learn how to make healthy lifestyle changes that promote about healthy eating combines with daily physical activity.
