Childhood Obesity and its Prevention

The prevalence of obesity in childhood is increasing all over the world and The World Health Organization shows obesity as one of the most important public health problems. Most of the obese children continue to be obese adults in their lives. Obesity causes type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis and some cancers. Also obese children have low selfesteem and have some social problems. Treatment of obesity is not much effective once it develops, therefore community- based preventive measures in early stages of life seem to be more important. In this review our aim is to look over the etiologic factors leading to childhood obesity and precautions to prevent its development.

Keywords: Obesity, childhood, prevention

Çocukluk Çağı Obezitesi ve Önlenmesi

Pınar Yılmazbaş, Emine Gülbin Gökçay

Çocukluk çağında obezite prevalansı tüm dünyada artmakta ve Dünya Sağlık Örgütü obeziteyi en önemli halk sağlığı sorunlarından biri olarak göstermektedir. Obez çocukların büyük bir bölümü yaşamlarına obez yetişkinler olarak devam etmektedirler. Obezite; tip 2 diyabetes mellitus, hipertansiyon, kardiyovasküler hastalıklar, osteoporoz ve bazı kanser türlerine neden olmaktadır. Ayrıca obez kişilerin öz saygısı azalmakta, sosyal yaşamları kötü yönde etkilenmektedir. Obezite geliştikten sonra tedavisinin çok etkin olmadığı, bu nedenle erken dönemde toplum temelli primer korunma önlemlerinin önemli olduğu görülmektedir. Bu makalede, çocukluk çağı obezitesine neden olan faktörler ve primer korunma için alınması gereken önlemlerin gözden geçirilmesi amaçlanmıştır

Keywords: Obezite, çocukluk çağı, korunma
