Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Health - Children and adolescents, University of Phoenix, language: English, abstract: This paper analyses whether fast food contributes to childhood obesity. Obesity is a multi-factorial disorder comprising genetic, dietary, conduct, and ecological components. The expanded eating of energy-dense poor nutrient diets with high saturated fats and sugar levels joined with diminished physical activity, have prompted high corpulence rates among kids. Current statistics depict that 15% of U.S kids and averagely 33% of adults are obsessed. The results in this new study support evidence that fast-foods adds to a high intake of calories and obesity risk in kids.
