New York City showed a 5.5% drop in the number of overweight children from 2007 to 2011. Philadelphiashowed a 4.7% drop, and Los Angeles a 3% drop. Declining childhood obesity rates have also been reported in parts ofMississippi, the state with the highest obesity rate in the nation.
In 2011, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) began a project to combat childhood obesity. Theproject’s goal is to find ways to make healthy changes in a community’s schools, food stores, parks and other places. Forexample, Philadelphia works with an organization called the Food Trust to connect schools with local farms and bringfresh vegetables to cafeterias. New York City has required chain restaurants to post calorie information on their menus.Mississippi created a program called “Fruits & Veggies: More Matters” to teach kids how to add healthy foods to theirdaily diets. These examples send a clear message: Any community that makes these kinds of changes over a few yearswill see their children get healthier.
Now schools nationwide are doing their part. Fried food has disappeared from many cafeteria menus. Whole-wheatbread has replaced white bread. Drinks like water and low-fat milk have replaced sugary beverages, including fruit punch,sports drinks and soda. Many schools have banned junk food and require healthier snack options in vending machines.
