To demonstrate the future effects of rising obesity levels, Olshansky and his co-authors first calculated how current rates of adult obesity are diminishing overall U.S. life expectancy.
For example, the incidence of type 2 diabetes has increased rapidly in teens, with obesity present in virtually all cases. In addition, obese children are more likely to be obese as adults. Thus, obesity puts a child's health at lifelong higher risk. Causes of childhood obesity Both genes and environment contribute to obesity, but the interaction is far from simple. Obesity is a complex condition with many interrelated causes. There is significant evidence that obesity is at least partly genetic. Certain ethnic groups are more vulnerable to obesity and obesity-related disorders. Genome-wide association studies show that some genes are associated with a higher body mass index.
