Fast Food Linked to Childhood Obesity

Fast Food Linked to Childhood Obesity 
What came to my attention while reading this article was that eating fast food adds about 6lbs. per child annually. Kids as young as 4 are eating fast food. Fast food consumption skyrocketed around the 1970's and the people that consumed more fast food were the households with a high income. Fast food lovers tend to eat less fruits and vegetables. The weight gain has increased even more since the 1990's because more fast foods places have been built. What surprised me the most was that about 15 percent of young people in the United States and one third of adults are obese.
