The Fight Against Childhood Obesity: Innovative approach and Strategies

The Golden Rule in Fighting Childhood Obesity: 

“Whatever you do privately and publicly for the children, don’t just do it (The Nike Way)! But do it positively and responsibly; do it, not just in good words; but more importantly, do it in good practices”.

–Martin Ekoumou, MD, MPH

 

An Important Fact:

Adults (parents, relatives, baby sitters, guardians, teachers, community’s members) are the most influential “Television Set” that children watch daily, moment by moment. Children don’t have too many responsibilities aside from being children. Therefore, it is important that adults practice the talk; walk the walk, and be role models who set a good example for children.”
