The majority of obese children reject the idea of weight loss surgery.

BBC News reports that majority of obese children reject the idea of weight loss surgery. "Across the board, school is not helping them sort their weight out - the food is problematic, the exercise is inappropriate for them and the bullying culture against them is not addressed."

It's a shame and a scandal that these unfortunate children are not being told the truth about child obesity and not being given the correct advice to reduce it. - Most childhood obesity is caused by eating salt and salty food. Parents (and schools) should as a priority seek to protect children from salty food. As well as causing the children to be obese in itself, it also tends to result in a sort of addiction to salt, which makes it harder to reduce salt intake.

If you value your children's health, do not feed them salty food.

When young children develop a taste for salt and salty food, that preference tends to stay with them for life and they will find it difficult in later years to cut down on salt. They may even find that they need more and more salt in order to find food 'tasty'. This is a sort of 'addiction' to salt. But high salt intake increases the risk of developing heart disease, type 2 diabetes, asthma, high blood pressure, cancer, depression and a host of other illnesses. These health problems are occurring in younger and younger people, partly because young people these days tend to eat a lot of salty snacks - like crisps, salted nuts, etc.

The main and most common health problem caused by high salt intake in children is child obesity, which of course almost invariably leads on to a lifetime of obesity and the misery and harm caused by obesity and by dieting.

Protect your children's health! Keep their salt intake low.
