A recent study shows that nearly 30 million obese in Brazil. Worse, much of that audience is children and adolescents.

Not to get just a statistical finding that start with such strategies within our own home? Examples: meals together with their children whenever possible, leisure physical activities like homework, food choices discussed in the family, decreasing the time on TV, computers and video games.

If you're still not convinced, see the reflections that the pediatrician and nutrition specialist, prof. dr. Mauro Fisberg sent to our blog.

Dr. reflections. Fisberg - The huge increase in overweight and obesity in children and adolescents around the world leads to important reflections. What is going on? We are eating more, using less energy or both simultaneously?

If we simply look at the number of calories you eat today and what ingerķamos about 50 years ago, the accounts do not close.

If we evaluate our physical activity, we can say that, although we never had so many people enrolled in gyms or playing sports in institutions, the volume and intensity of exercise are too low. The modern world makes our sedentary lifestyle, and television, video games, the internet, make physical activity is greatly diminished. We are connected electronically, but our young people are isolated in their electronic universe. 

How to solve this equation, it is a concern of governments, international agencies, governments, universities and research centers. We know a lot about obesity, the relationship between excess weight and its consequences, but very little about how to solve the problem effectively.

In time, we developed several recipes published here in G1, with attractive and nutritious dishes that appeal to children. Check here.
