Childhood Obesity

Team:

Abstract:

Childhood obesity is a critical public health issue that has been identified as a major problem in the United States. The main objective of the Public Health Bootcamp was to comprehend how childhood habits can impact the occurrence of childhood obesity, highlight the consequences of approved medications for treating childhood obesity, and explore strategies to support children who are at risk of becoming obese. By examining the long-term effects of childhood habits and behaviors, the team identified patterns and trends that contribute to obesity and implemented interventions that promote healthier lifestyles from an early age. In summary, the Public Health Bootcamp recognizes childhood obesity as a pressing public health issue. Through extensive research of three specific topics (Family and lifestyle, Medication, Sedentary Habits), analysis, and a comprehensive understanding of the causes and consequences, the program aimed to develop strategies and interventions that can effectively combat childhood obesity and promote healthier lives for children.
