Child Obesity: Scarier & Persisting Epidemic than any other

When I look around, I get a lot disturbed with the site of many small / young kids either overweight or almost on the edge of becoming obese. Which is really a lot unusual site as even 3 decades back, it  was very rare to come across overweight kids in our neighborhood / Schools / College etc.  And I hope you appreciate this fact and don’t consider as something being hyped / making up here.

Now just to substantiate this point further: Below are Some alarming facts about Child Obesity in India and in the World (referring to few surveys during 2016-2018):

  • 14+ Million children in India are overweight/obese which is 15% of India’s Child population. It’s 2nd highest in the world behind China & followed by the US.
  • This means India contributes to ~40% of Worldwide Child Obesity.
  • The number is much higher (35 – 40% Children) in the Urban + Middle / Higher Middle Class strata of the society in India.
  • Amongst age group 5-9: Almost 10% are Pre-Diabetic, and 1% Diabetic
  • It not just leads to Diabetes but disorders like
    • Higher Triglycerides
    • Increased Blood pressure
    • Cardio Vascular issues
    • Liver related problems
    • PCOD and other disorders for Girls
    • Impaired Development of Body Parts / Structure
    • Depression & Other Psychological disorders
    • Deep negative impact on Healthcare, Culture, Society & Economy of the country  
  • And more scarier aspect is this 14 Million number is about to increase by more than double – To ~27 million by 2030 (alone in India).
  • And all the metabolic disorders that can get developed due to this will start rising exponentially in only another 5 years.

So how can this be controlled / reversed ? Well some of these remedies / changes all of us are well aware of but I’d like to add a few more which might not be considered / discussed that widely.

  1. Nutrition Education : This is the First and fore most and the onus is on all of us, i.e.: Wide spectrum of our society:
    • Pregnant women: (Pre, Intra & Post-Natal phases) A lot more intense & correct education is required than what’s prevalent today. Only knowing or practicing Pilates / Yoga-Asanas for this phase is just not sufficient.
    • Kids aged 6 on-wards: Typically Grade 1 on-wards till Grade 10, it should be a compulsory subject at the Schools (like that of Socials, PT, Crafts etc.)
    • Parents: Schools should conduct Nutrition awareness workshops / sessions once in 6 months with the parents, on the lines of Parent – Teacher meetings.
    • Gifts / Return Gifts: Parents/ Kids should focus on gifting right things like Nuts, Berries, Fruits, Plants, Books on Nutrition, Gym membership, Sports Kits than Chocolates / Sweets / Video Games / Indoor Games etc.
  2. Sugar: Avoid Sugar in All forms. That’s the #1 trigger for obesity
  3. Healthy fats: Increase intake of Healthy fats and avoid all products which are loaded with trans fats and vegetable oils + bundled with Sugar.
  4. Eating Right: Avoid
    • Packaged / processed Food, Bakery,
    • Juices, Aerated Drinks
    • Pizzas, Pasta (Maida based products)
    • Ice creams, Candies, Chocolates, which contain Sugar + Vegetable Oil. Instead promote home-made food which is not (glucose) energy-dense.
  5. Screen Time: Limit to Maximum. Promote Outdoor Sports / activities. Remember kids will follow the parents. So Walk the Talk is essential
  6. Holidays: Instead of splurging only on the Leisurely Holidays, take kids for running, trekking, swimming on weekends
  7. Idolize: Idolize Athletes / Sports-persons and health conscious celebrities .
  8. Campaigns: Government / Corporates and NGOs promoting Print / Digital / Radio / Television campaigns where Sports Persons / Celebrities create awareness about Nutrition and Fitness for Children / Adolescents.

Hope this gives a better perceptive + inputs to tackle a very serious disorder impacting the society & rapidly growing in India and across the globe.

We’ll continue discussing on similar topics in our subsequent articles.

    Winston here from Iowa. I’m always watching to see what newer sites are going up and I just wanted to see if you would like an extra hand with getting some targeted traffic, create custom AI bots to answer questions from visitors on your site or walk them through a solution of any sort or even a sales process/funnel. I can even create a custom persona of yourself, custom videos/images/adcopy, remove negative listings, the list goes on. I’ll even shoulder 90% of the costs, dedicating my time and tools that I’ve created myself and bought over the years. I’ve been doing this for over 22 years, helped thousands of people and have loved every minute of it.

    There’s virtually no cost on my end to do any of this for you except for my time starting at 99 a month. I don’t mean to impose; I was just curious if I could lend a hand.

    Brief history, I’ve been working from home for a couple decades now and I love helping others. I’m married, have three girls and if I can provide for them by helping you and giving back by using the tools and knowledge I’ve built and learned over the years, I can’t think of a better win-win.

    It amazes me that no one else is helping others quite like I do and I’d love to show you how I can help out. So, if you need any extra help in any way, please let me know either way as I value your time and don’t want to pester you.

    PS – If I didn’t mention something you might need help with just ask, I only mentioned a handful of things to keep this brief 🙂

    All the best,

    Winston
