The Epidemic of Childhood Obesity
Manage episode 282750952 series 2823711
Are children aware of what is happening to their health? In this episode, Dr. Powell teaches us how important is for adults to teach their children healthy habits related to food and exercise, so common diseases that affected mostly adults, don’t affect them so hard like it is nowadays. She also points out the intensity of diseases in colored and poor children compared to others, giving us something to reflect about.
