15Childhood Obesity
HOW?
- In a study involving 14 other industrialized
nations, children from the United States were the
most likely to be overweight.
16Among 13-year-old boys in the U.S., 12.6 were

overweight. That number grows for
15-year-olds--13.9 of boys are overweight and
15.1 of girls are overweight.
