Fat Kids and Heart Issues

Overweight children often become fat and unhealthy adults. A recent study showed that these children are also more likely to develop left ventricular hypertrophy; a enlargement of the heart often associated with high blood pressure and premature death.

Researchers in Belgium followed over 1000 patients for 28 years.

We know that fast foods and processed foods are very rich in calories and closely related to obesity. Keep your children away from sugary snacks and fast foods!
