Childhood Obesity: A 220 Million Child Warning


Listen Later

In today's episode we're examining a startling report warning that over 220 million children will be obese by 2040 without "drastic action".

We explore data from the World Obesity Federation showing that over half a billion children will soon be overweight, with millions already showing early signs of chronic diseases like hypertension and heart disease.

We discuss why experts call this a "failure of environments" and highlight the urgent need for governments to restrict food industry marketing and implement sugar taxes.

Join us as we confront the reality of this global health crisis.
