Lifelong Effects

Childhood obesity can have a harmful effect on the body in a variety of ways. Obese children are more likely to have High blood pressure and high cholesterol, which are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). In one study, 70 percent of obese children had at least one CVD risk factor, while 39 percent had two or more. Increased risk of impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Breathing problems, such as sleep apnea and asthma. Joint problems and musculoskeletal discomfort. Fatty liver disease, gallstones and gastro-esophageal reflux (i.e., heartburn). If children are overweight, obesity in adulthood is likely to be more severe. Cystic fibrosis (CF) has also been associated with overweight and obesity.
