The Health of our kids is the most important part of our future. An estimated 1.5 million people under the age of 18 are considered overweight or obese. This means about 20‐25% of Australian Children are overweight or obese. This proportion is increasing at an accelerating pace and is similar to what is occurring internationally. The obesity epidemic is doubling approximately every ten years however those considered overweight increased by as much as 70%. If weight gain is to continue at the path it is going, by the year 2020, 80% of all Australian adults and a third of all children will be overweight or obese. Tone Up believes that the reason obesity needs to be addressed in children is to ensure that bad early lifestyle choices don’t become long term habits. It is known that 50% of obese adolescents continue to be obese adults. Obesity as a child is linked to an increase in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in an adult regardless of the adult weight. Being overweight as a child brings and an increase for heart related diseases like high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, and high blood sugar. Child obesity is also related to many medical conditions like respiratory disorders, orthopaedic problems, release of growth hormone, arthritis, and gastric problems. These statistics are very alarming to us however all people from the general community to the highest of Government are aware and willing to fight the epidemic.
