We don't understand exactly why yet, but research continues to show this is true," ABC News Medical contributor Dr. Marie Savard said. "

Diet foods and low-calorie junk are causing obesity in children
Diet foods could lead to obesity - Telegraph
Extract:
"Giving children low calorie food and diet drinks may actually increase their risk of becoming obese.
A team of researchers in Canada suggest that children may just eat more to compensate for the foods' low calorie content.
Parents are increasingly turning to low-calorie food and diet options in a bid to stop their children becoming overweight.
A quarter of children aged between 11 and 15 are overweight. The figure has doubled in the last 10 years and the Government looks unlikely to hit even the modest target of halting the rise in childhood obesity by 2010.
Type two diabetes, which is caused by obesity and can lead to heart disease, amputations and blindness, is now being diagnosed in young children, which was unheard of a decade ago.
Dr David Pierce, a University of Alberta sociologist and lead author of the paper published today in the journal Obesity, said: "Based on what we've learned, it is better for children to eat healthy, well-balanced diets with sufficient calories for their daily activities rather than low-calorie snacks or meals."
The real reason children are more prone to become obese from eating low calorie 'foods' is twofold: - low calorie diet 'foods' are often high in sodium, which is the cause of child obesity, and low in proper nutrients, so the children's blood vessel walls become further weakened and so more susceptible to excess salt in the bloodstream and the water that accompanies it, leading to fluid retention. - Read about child obesity here: http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/children.html
