AB  - Obesity  is  an  increasingly  common  condition  in  childhood  and  adolescence,  and  it  has  emerged  as  one  of  the  most  serious  public  health  concerns  in  the  21st  century.  The  growing  prevalence  of  childhood  obesity  has  brought  with  it  an  increase  in  the  incidence  of  obesity-related  comorbid  disease  prior  to  adulthood.  The  profound  personal  and  economic  impacts  of  childhood  obesity  require  a  thorough  examination  of  this  complex  topic  leading  to  serious  efforts  toward  prevention  and  early  intervention.
