One of Houston’s main causes of childhood obesity is not getting enough exercise.
Childhood obesity often stems from insufficient physical activity. In today’s technologically advanced society, children are increasingly drawn to sedentary activities such as video games, watching television, or using electronic devices, which can lead to a lack of exercise. Without regular physical activity, the body is unable to burn off excess calories consumed through food, leading to weight gain.
Having examined the physical activity rates among children in the Houston area, let’s now delve into the obesity rates, differentiating between boys and girls. Understanding these trends provides crucial insights into the intersection of activity levels and weight management within our community.
