I contacted Dr. Ammir Rabadi and asked him some questions on obesity.
Interview:
Me: What percentage of a risk do most children have towards becoming overweight or obese?
Dr: Children who are spending 3 or more hours a day using technology have between a 17-44 percent increase of a risk of becoming overweight and a 10-61 percent risk in becoming obese.
Me: Ok, how can children or teens prevent from becoming overweight or obese?
Dr: By choosing healthier foods ad beverages and avoiding unhealthy food, anyone could prevent this. Also by increasing physical activity, limiting television, or "technology time", improving sleep, and lastly reducing stress.
