Nowadays childhood obesity is becoming a serious problem in many countries. This essay will discuss the reasons and the solutions.
In my opinion, in recent years obesity is becoming a one of the big issue in many parts of the earth because of the advertisement. Many families watch television while they are having a meal and they watch wide range of junk food advertisements, such as burgers, hot-dogs, pizzas and etc. As a result, children would interest in these foods and eat them often during a week, which makes them unhealthy and fat. Apart from that, a lot of parents don’t control their meals. For example, they often prepare high kkal meals with a lot of fats or they just order fast food meals from the cafes like McDonalts, BurgerKing and etc.
The solutions of this problem is that parents should manage their daily supplies by calculating the kkals and fats in the food. Also, they should avoid from fast preparing foods as much as they can and try to eat more health foods. Furthermore, these days children are inactive, a lot of children don’t do physical activities. I think doing daily recreational activities including football, basketball or running would prevent obesity and makes them healthy.
In conclusion, childhood obesity can be reduced if parents provide healthier meals and encourage their children to take part in regular physical activities. By adopting healthier eating habits and staying active, children can maintain a healthy lifestyle and reduce the risk of obesity.
