"As a result of this epidemic, health problems that were rarely seen in children 30 years ago are now quite common."

"One out of every 3 children is affected by obesity, and over the last 3 decades rates have skyrocketed."

"According to data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, rates of obesity have doubled in children and tripled in teens."

"Obesity is a problem that we can't ignore, and we need engagement from all sides."
