Hey, it's Marco! The typical child is now ill. Not only is it likely that any child will be suffering from allergies, asthma, diabetes, autism, cancer, or gut disorder, the odds are that they’re also suffering from the ill effects of the treatments they receive, like steroids and beta agonists and devastating psychiatric drugs. The new normal is to be sick. And, did you know that childhood obesity threatens the health of our young people and their future potential. Today, approximately 23 million children and adolescents in the United States—nearly one in three young people—are either obese or overweight, putting them at higher risk for serious, even life-threatening health problems. If we don’t reverse the childhood obesity epidemic, the current generation of young people could be the first in U.S. history to live sicker and die younger than their parents’ generation. Remember, fat kids do not grow up to be fit and healthy adults!
No Happy Kids!
