What’s driving weight gain issues? Many different factors are at play, including diets with high amounts of high-calorie, heavily processed foods, children spending less time engaging in physical play and instead spending more time behind screens, and eating portions that are too large.
Unfortunately, obesity can have a dramatic impact on one’s health. Children who are overweight are more likely to suffer serious cardiac events and may be at increased risk of developing Type II diabetes. Further, forcing bones and muscles to support excess weight can contribute to arthritis and other issues.

The good news is that we now have a better understanding of obesity and children. Video games are often pointed to as one of the factors increasing obesity, however, some video games encourage physical movement and interaction. If a game can get kids on their feet and moving around, it could be a good thing.
Gamification, which means introducing elements from video games to other activities, like playing at the playground, can also increase interaction and activity. Virtual and augmented reality may likewise prove effective for encouraging physical activity. Devices with biosensors can help parents track how active their kids are as well.
Innovation doesn’t always mean using technology either. Kids typically have far more sensitive taste buds than adults. If your child is a picky eater, an approach to cooking that emphasizes their sensitive taste buds could go a long way towards crafting foods that your children will enjoy and that are also healthy.
