    Obesity, Lack of Proper Nutrition and Lack of Exercise. And all these things factor into other health problems. If a child is not getting the proper balance and nutrition they are prone to develop problems in school. ADD and ADHD could be controlled with help of diet and exercise.

    But if we do not get a handle on this issue of Obesity and Lack of Physical Exercise our nation will become a diabetic, hypertension and many other health problems.

    children of today are facing more problems on health due to the fact that mosts of them are getting immobile and stucked with the computers. less exercise, imbalanced diets and not enough sleep; leads to obesity and eventually diabetis, kidney and young heart trouble.
    alarming statistics of young children having these diseases is of great concern for parents who allows their children to sit too long at the computers and depending much on readily available fast foods which are mostly loaded with fats and sugar.
