Guidelines For Kids with Obesity: Family and Treatment Are Key #shorts

Douglas Lunsford’s son Samuel has struggled with obesity all his life.

Just before turning 14, Samuel, now 25, took part in a program at Ohio-based Nationwide Children’s Hospital’s Center for Healthy Weight and Nutrition. The program consisted of twice-weekly meetings with a nutritionist, including lessons in food portion size, what food does within the body, what foods can be used to supplement other foods, and similar topics, as well as physical exercise. #obesity #childhoodobesity #healthyweight #nutrition #wellness #webmd #shorts
