Childhood obesity is about far more than a number on the scale. It affects a child's physical health, mental well-being, confidence, and future risk of chronic disease. The good news? Early intervention works.
In this video, I explain:
✅ Why childhood obesity matters
✅ The health risks children face
✅ How parents can build healthy habits at home
✅ The importance of nutrition, exercise, sleep, and limiting screen time
✅ Why compassion—not shame—is the key to lasting change
As a Board-Certified Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine Physician, my goal is to provide evidence-based, practical advice that helps families create healthier futures for their children.
