This in itself is alarming…we are getting more and more overweight with most occurring in urban settings.  As income rises, food intake increases.  There is also a global shift in how we eat.  More salt, more fat and more sugars.  The more we process food, the more we change the food we eat, the less nutrient dense it is.  There is a decrease in vitamins, minerals and micronutrients that help our bodies to stay healthy (WHO, Fact Sheet 311).  The other issue is we exercise less than we used to.  When life has many tools that can make our lives easier…we move our bodies less, we sit more, well, we do not burn calories.  An increase of video games, electronics have caused kids to play less and eat more.  The challenge is getting kids to get outside and play at least one hour a day.
