If your children are already tend-
ing towards.being over-
weight, or are experiencing
weight-related issues, I
- recommend the following:
• Consult your trusted
health care professional
for reliable health and
\ dietary advice;
• Make appropriate
changes to your home
environment relating to
available foods, snacks,
and exercise opportunities;
• Include your child(ren) in
the family's health-related deci-
sion making and self monitoring;
It goes without saying that preven-
tion is the best step. Children take
cues from their parents and the
environment they provide. Keep
your family active. Offer snacks
of vegetables, fruits, dairy, whole
grains and healthy fats. Above all,
create a healthy, loving home for
all of you.

nsvver: Dear Geoffrey,
unfortunately, many
children in our society
are growing up overweight/obese.
These children are increasingly
being diagnosed with what used to
be considered adult diseases: e.g.,
diabetes, hypertension and insulin
resistance. The truth is that it
doesn't have to be this way.
