Children Diabetes Diet
by: Rouma

Most parents correlate between obesity and good general health for their children. Of course, this concept is wrong, because millions of obese people worldwide suffer from serious conditions, like anemia, heart diseases, diabetes?..etc.

According to a recent study published in New England Journal of Medicine, childhood obesity is one of the major causes of premature deaths. This study included about five thousand American Indian child.

During the prolonged follow-up period, almost six hundred developed diabetes type 2.

It was found that the 1.300 most obese children in this study had 230% premature death frequency more than the leanest children.

In conclusion, the elevated blood glucose had increased mortality frequency by seventy three percent, while hypertension had elevated this risk by fifty three percent.

That is why U.S.A First Lady Michelle Obama together with American Diabetes Association have announced a childhood obesity campaign (Let's Move!).This campaign aims to stop the development of diabetes type 2 as an epidemic disease in America.

It is very important that the parents give their children a healthy balanced diet which is rich in fibers, vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, and proteins as well.

Usually, the amount of food is determined according to the child's age and weight. Sweets can be eaten in moderation. This may prevent future damages to their teeth too (caries).

Also, physical activity must be included in child's daily life. Always encourage your children to game for sports. This keeps their mind and body always active.

After playing, give your child lots of water instead of other "soft" drinks. Water is pure and will give your child the freshness he/she needs after the game and will not cause any problem to his/her body. Instead will supply with minerals most needed.

Hope this helped!
