Your Family Is Not
Obese…Yet
Preventative measures for lowering Obesity Rates
ALLISON SCHWARZ, ALICIA WILLIAMS, KATHRYN LUO, TOM KENNEDY
Who is our audience?
-Parents and Kids 5-12yrs: we want them to be educated
so that they can prevent obesity in their children and for
kids to actively prevent obesity in themselves and in
future generations
- When children begin entering adolescence, they start
to have some sense of autonomy and need to know info
pertaining to their diet and exercise.
(Major factor(s) - causes, consequences,
symptoms, why?)
At Risk Groups:
-Low Socioeconomic status: Food deserts, lack of play space.
-Race: Hispanic and African American are more likely to become Obese than other
ethnicities
Consequences of Obesity:
- Higher mortality rate
- Higher risk of other diseases (heart disease)
- Overall, lower quality of life
(Now - what to do differently
today?)
-“Get it up and go” Exercise kids (focusing
on parents)
-Immediate preventative measures-
Parents need to be aware of healthier
diets for their children
(Future: Next steps?)
-Implementing policies and educating for future parents to be
(kids too).
-Policies to help lower-income areas have more access to healthier
foods (reduce fast food/convenience stores, increase
supermarkets)
-Educate children in elementary schools about healthy diets
(require a health class?)
