Childhood Obesity and Diabetes

Obesity is a significant long-term health problem that is common among children and adolescents in most of the countries. Being overweight or obese (extremely overweight) can contribute to type 2 diabetes in childhood and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. Early prevention of obesity prevents the development of serious secondary complications in adulthood. Nurses can help parents and children by providing nutritional advice and, through weight management programs, offer strategies for decreasing caloric intake and increasing physical activity.

 Nurses should always take a whole-family approach action because it is challenging for obese children to alter their dietary or physical habits if not supported by their families. They need to work with all the members of the team in addressing childhood obesity as it is a major health with long-term morbidities.
