A major new study has found that children who were overweight in kindergarten were much more likely to be obese by eighth grade. And almost every child who was very obese remained that way. The study tracked the body weight of more than 7,000 children and its results surprised many experts.
Although some obese or overweight kindergartners lost their excess weight, a child’s chance to avoid obesity diminished each year that passed. By age 11, children who were obese or overweight stayed that way. To combat the nation’s obesity epidemic, experts suggest that efforts must start much earlier and focus more on the children at greatest risk.
