  • Summary

  • Childhood obesity is often carried through into adulthood, due to both physiological, behavioural, and environmental factors. Preventing obesity in this age group provides a unique opportunity to halt a course to unhealthy adult life. In this episode, newly appointed President of the World Obesity Federation Professor Louise Baur joins Alexander to discuss childhood obesity: how and why it has increased in prevalence around the world, practical advice for parents and healthcare professionals in mitigating the risks, and the impact of modern society and media on growing minds and bodies.
