Child and Adolescent Obesity


Having excess body weight is known as obesity. Body mass index or BMI gives an easy way to estimate whether a person is overweight or not. BMI is measured by person’s weight in kilogram divided by the square of a person’s height in meters. Though BMI calculation is the not the accurate way of judging someone is obese or not, still gives a vague idea about a person’s health. Many factors contribute to childhood obesity including genetics, metabolism, society in which the child is staying, short sleep duration, eating and physical activity behaviour
