Research uncovers "tipping point" for childhood obesity Print E-mail
Friday, 12 February 2010 09:09

A research study on childhood obesity by EVMS pediatrician John Harrington, MD, is the focus of news coverage in The Virginian-Pilot, the Los Angeles Times and elsewhere. Dr. Harrington's study suggests that the "tipping point" in obesity often occurs before a child reaches age two and sometimes as early as three months.

 

First lady Michelle Obama recently began a national campaign to fight childhood obesity, which puts kids at higher risk for serious health issues including Type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure.
