This document discusses challenges with childhood obesity interventions and measuring dietary intake. It notes that while simple messages to "eat less and exercise more" are commonly prescribed, studies show such interventions have limited effectiveness. Methodological issues make accurately assessing dietary intake and determining the true causes of obesity difficult. The document examines a variety of factors potentially contributing to obesity, from food marketing and lack of activity to genetics and environmental chemicals. It emphasizes the complexity of obesity's causes and questions the reliability of common measures like BMI and self-reported diets.

Fly Movement - A Fun Kids Fitness ProgramEric Melchor
An easy fitness program for 3rd graders. Fly Movement is a program that implements friendly team competition to motivate kids which then encourages fitness and builds confidence through competing and program accomplishment.
Exercise is important for both physical and mental health as it can help prevent diseases, improve stamina, strengthen muscles and bones, enhance flexibility, control weight, and improve quality of life. Specifically, exercise reduces the risk of heart disease, cancer, and other illnesses; trains the body to use energy more efficiently; develops muscles, bones and ligaments for increased strength; reduces injuries and improves balance; burns calories to aid in weight control; and reduces stress while lifting moods and aiding sleep.
The document discusses a lesson plan on physical fitness. It defines physical fitness and outlines its key components including cardio-respiratory endurance, muscular endurance, strength, speed, power, agility and flexibility. The lesson plan involves students discussing what physical fitness means to them, learning about its components through a group activity, and ways to assess different aspects of physical fitness.
Exercise is the activity that results in contraction of skeletal muscle. The term is usually used in reference to any activity that promotes physical fitness. Although muscle contraction is the common element of all forms of exercise, many other organs and systems are affected, for example, the heart and lungs. Many people also find that regular exercise enhances their sense of mental well-being along with their general physical health.The importance of exercise in contributing to health is mentioned in this presentation.
The document discusses exercise, recommending 60 minutes per day for children, 30 minutes most days for adults, and 150 minutes per week for pregnant women. It describes aerobic and iso-kinetic exercises and their benefits. Regular exercise provides physical benefits like reducing obesity and disease risk, and psychological benefits such as stress relief, boosted mood, and improved cognition. Characteristics of those who exercise regularly include enjoying their activity and having a positive attitude towards physical fitness. Common intervention strategies aim to modify determinants of activity through family, workplace, nutrition, school and environmental programs. Potential unintended negative effects need to be guarded against.
This physical education lesson plan uses a game to teach students in grades 4-12 about the dangers of social media networks. The game involves students creating fake social media profiles using altered photos of themselves. Students are split into groups and photos are randomly assigned names. Students then take turns selecting a name and photo to match. The goal is to raise awareness that online profiles may not always match the actual person. After playing, the teacher discusses how easy it is to create fake profiles and risks of interacting with unknown individuals online. Students are reminded to tell trusted adults if threatened or uncomfortable online.
The document outlines a detailed lesson plan for a physical education class that focuses on fitness awareness. The objectives are to define exercise, understand its benefits, and safely perform exercises. The lesson plan involves reviewing exercises, discussing their physical, psychological, and intellectual benefits in small groups, and evaluating students' understanding with a check up activity and assignment to design a personal fitness plan.

This document discusses challenges in navigating today's abundant food supply. It notes that there is no single recommendation for a healthy diet and looks at what families are eating in America versus other countries. It also examines factors like the cost of foods, food marketing, eating away from home, and how the food supply has become adulterated. The document questions whether body size should be the only measure of a healthy diet and suggests that conventional dietary recommendations may increase obesity risk for some children. It emphasizes that health is determined more by what foods are eaten rather than where.
1) Americans spend over $1 trillion annually on restaurants and fast food, eating out 5-10 times per week. Obesity rates have doubled since 1980, with over 60% of adults now overweight or obese.
2) Effective long-term weight loss requires setting specific, measurable, attainable, and time-bound goals. Proper nutrition and exercise are also important, with a caloric intake of 1200-1500 calories per day and cardio 3-4 times per week.
3) Maintaining weight loss requires lifestyle changes like preparing meals at home, avoiding excessive snacks and drinks, and focusing on whole, minimally processed foods in appropriate portions. Consistency is key to long-term success.

Good nutrition for women starts with a well-rounded diet consisting of whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, and lean sources of protein. In addition, women have specific vitamin and mineral requirements throughout their lifespan to promote good health. This program will cover establishing good nutrition habits that will provide women with plenty of energy and the means for lifelong weight control.
This document discusses obesity trends and the changing food environment. It notes that the prevalence of obesity among men increased from 6% in 1980 to 23% in 2004, and among women from 8% to 24% over the same period based on UK health surveys. Similar increasing trends are seen in child overweight and obesity rates globally between 1970 and 2000. The document argues that modern environments mismatch biological needs, with strong cues to eat but weak activity cues, and technologies that promote inactivity. It suggests obesity should be viewed as a normal response to an abnormal environment shaped by factors like increased food availability, larger portions, and food marketing. A multi-factorial approach is needed that considers both environmental determinants and genetic susceptibilities, rather than solely bl

Overweight and obesity are global issues that have more than doubled since 1980. Poor nutrition, especially a diet high in carbohydrates, and lack of exercise are the main drivers of increasing weight worldwide. The metabolic balance program addresses this by recommending a diet with 3 meals per day, fewer and higher quality carbohydrates, and normal calorie intake instead of low-calorie or low-fat diets. An independent study found that over 60% of participants following the metabolic balance program lost over 5% of their body weight and maintained the loss for at least one year.
Ruben Carranza analyzed his usual diet and a revised diet over two days. For both diets, he assessed macronutrient and micronutrient intake compared to daily recommended intake goals. While his usual diet was low in some nutrients, his revised diet met or exceeded goals for carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals. Key changes included increasing whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and dairy. The revised diet provided higher nutrient density from foods like spinach, crispy rice cereal, orange juice, and an energy bar. The analysis found no risks of deficiency or toxicity for either diet.

The document discusses obesity as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. It provides definitions of obesity based on body mass index (BMI) and other measures. It examines the relationship between BMI and cardiovascular mortality, and reviews the health risks associated with obesity like diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, etc. The document also explores factors contributing to the rise in obesity rates like changes in diet, physical activity levels, and the built environment. It reviews evidence on the effects of diet, exercise and behavior modifications in facilitating weight loss and reducing obesity-related health risks. In conclusion, the document emphasizes the importance of preventing weight gain and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to minimize cardiovascular risks.
This document summarizes research from the Adventist Health Studies examining the relationship between lifestyle, diet, and disease risk factors like obesity. It finds that among Seventh-day Adventists, who emphasize healthy living, vegetarian diets are associated with lower rates of hypertension, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome compared to non-vegetarian diets. Studies also show that maintaining a healthy weight throughout life, rather than weight gain, is associated with greater longevity. The document concludes that as a faith community, Adventists can help address obesity by continuing to promote healthy lifestyles and plant-based diets to future generations.

Growth charts can show different growth patterns for breastfed babies depending on the chart used. Body weight alone cannot distinguish between lean mass and fat mass. BMI is a poor measure of adiposity. Obesity is related to both genetics and environmental factors like increased access to highly palatable foods and reduced physical activity requirements. The optimal ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids is debated but is generally thought to be between 1:1 and 4:1. Highly processed Western diets have become deficient in omega-3 fatty acids and excessive in omega-6 fatty acids.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

34. Ten Putative Contributors
to the Obesity Epidemic
• Food marketing • Maternal age
practices • Assortative mating
• Physical activity • Sleep debt
• Infections • Endocrine disruptors
• Perinatal epigenetic • Pharmaceutical
factors iatrogenesis
– maternal obesity • Ambient temperature
– over/undernutrition
– hyperinsulinemia

• Food marketing • Maternal age
practices • Assortative mating
• Physical activity • Sleep debt
• Infections • Endocrine disruptors
• Perinatal epigenetic • Pharmaceutical
factors iatrogenesis
– maternal obesity
• Ambient temperature
– over/undernutrition
– hyperinsulinemia
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition 49(10) 868-913 (2009)
36. Perinatal Epigenetic Factors
• Before pregnancy health status
– Nutrient intake, calorie intake
– Relative insulin sensitivity
– Activity level, stress management
• Perinatal nutrition status
– Diet & activity
– Glucose tolerance
– Total and rate of weight gain
• Nutrition status infant
– Birth weight, rate of weight gain
– Breast v. Bottle feeding
37. Genetic Traits Impact Food Intake
• Up to 69% of eating behaviors may be genetically determined
– Response to internal satiety cues
– Response to taste or smell of food
– Sensitivity to rewards/reinforcement for eating preferred foods
– Food preferences
• Parental monitoring of food intake
– is more result of child obesity,
not an antecedent
Stang and Loth. ADAJ:111(9) 1301-1305
38. Iatrogenic Medications for Kids
• Weight gain is possible with many medications
– Psychoactive meds
• Anti-psychotics
• Mood stabilizers
• Antidepressants
– Diabetes Meds
• Insulin, Sulfonureas
– Steroids
• Allergies, asthma,
• Oral birth control
39. PSYCHOACTIVE DRUGS:
Dietary Guidance
• Use portion control for all food at meals and snacks
• Use more healthy food choices (example - fresh fruits
and vegetables for snacks)
• Limit snacks and junk food
• Substitute high calorie for lower calorie snacks
(example – pretzels instead of chips/nuts)
• Drink several large glasses (or bottles) of water
throughout the day
• Limit sugar sweetened beverages

45. Dietary Guidelines for Fit Kids
• Eat balanced meals and snacks
– Enough protein
– Carbohydrates preferentially from whole foods, mostly
produce
– Enough healthy fats

46. Dietary Guidelines for Fit Kids
• Eat regular meals, snacks through the day
• Avoid getting over hungry
Starving Just Enough Full Stuffed
Still Hungry Satisfied Overfull
47. Dietary Guidelines for Fit Kids
• Eat when your are hungry; stop when your hunger is
gone
• Self regulation
• Resilience
48. Dietary Guidelines for Fit Kids
• Health at Every Size
– Focus on behavior,
not weight or BMI
– Body size should not a litmus for
what someone gets to eat
– We need to teach all of our
children how to survive
abundance

Editor's Notes
Should BMI be used diagnostically?Mostly it is a screening tool
Plausible reporters58.4 % (Savage, 2008)45.3% (Fulton, 2009)Implausible reporters 16.4% under reporters 25.1% over-reportersLooking at food….
Land of immigrantsPeople come to America looking for opportunityHow many of us are predisposed genetically and epigenetically to survive abundance?
How does farm policy play out in the grocery store? Fresh fruits and vegetables cost more
How significantly does cost of foods impact incidence of obesity?
Average supermarket items in 1970-- 12,000Average supermarket items today – 48,000
There is extraordinary attention paid to where we purchase and eat our foodWe buy a lot more food from big box stores
I say be careful what you wish forOnly 2/10 are fast food entrees: pizza, chicken strips and fries
This is only one of many studies with similar findingsOnly 50 calories difference; the leaner kids are eating more
Fattest kids: 4 grams less carbohydrate; 2 grams more fat
Mean anthropometric measures in children 2-18 years of ageNHANES Data 1999-2004 –24 hour recall 32% children; 30% of adolescents reported candy consumption day of recallCandy consumers have lower weight lower BMI lower waist circumference than non consumers

DDT. PCB. Bisphenyl A, Pthalates. PBDE, Perfluorocatonic acid (PFOA)Some other examples of putative EDCs are polychlorinated dibenzo-dioxins (PCDDs) and -furans (PCDFs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), phenol derivatives and a number of pesticides (most prominent being organochlorine insecticides like endosulfan and DDT and its derivatives, the herbicide atrazine, and the fungicide vinclozolin), the contraceptive 17-alpha ethinylestradiol, as well as naturally occurring phytoestrogens such as genistein and mycoestrogens such as zearalenone.

Is your hunger gone?
Avoid the issues with shame, guilt, increased risk of disordered eating behaviorThe changes in true biomarkers will follow; maybe weight
