Abstract:
"Managing and securing a sustained decrease in the prevalence of childhood obesity is one of the major public health challenges of the 21st century. In 2021 the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that there were 39 million children under the age of 5 living with overweight or obesity in the year 2020. While there were over 340 million children and young people (CYP) aged 5-19 living with overweight or obesity in the year 2016 [2]. The WHO demonstrated the importance they placed on tackling childhood obesity to worldwide health by setting a target in 2011 for worldwide childhood obesity prevalence to be no more than 2010 levels by the year 2025"-- Provided by publisher.
