3 Home Habits to Stay Slim
Dear Reader,
In the March 2010 issue of Pediatrics, researchers are set to reveal some unexpected weapons in the fight against childhood obesity - and all three are directly under your control.
It seems that family behaviors can have a significant impact on preschool children, helping them maintain a normal weight, and perhaps delivering other benefits as well.
The three habits?
- Sit down to dinner together as a family five or more nights each week.
- Be sure children get enough (10.5 hours a night at this age) sleep.
- Limit time in front of the TV or game system to less than two hours a day.
"Four-year-olds who regularly ate dinner with the family, got enough sleep and watched less than two hours of TV a day were 40% less likely to be obese," points out study lead author, Sarah Anderson, an assistant professor of epidemiology in the College of Public Health at Ohio State University.
Since there are so few easy, effective treatments for childhood obesity, preventing it in the first place must get special emphasis. Childhood obesity isn't something to brush of; it's a serious medical condition that gets kids started on a path to health problems (high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol) once only seen in adults.
The research included a nationally representative sample of 8,550 four year olds along with one parent per child who answered questions about family routine and behavior. In children, obesity is determined by the BMI being greater than the 95th percentile when compared to others of the same age and gender. The group of children in this study had an 18% obesity rate.
Only 14.5% of the children were regularly exposed to all three of the at home behaviors, and the obesity rate for this group was 14.3%. For those kids who were exposed to none of the three, the obesity rate shot up to 24.5%. Researchers were able to link each behavior to a 17% reduction in the rate of obesity.
These results held even after the team controlled for things that might impact a child's risk of being obese. These included obesity of the mother, race, gender, socioeconomic status and living in a single parent household.
The results show an association between the three behaviors and obesity rates, but the study was not designed to demonstrate cause and effect. "We don't know if it's the routines per se, or if it's the parenting associated with these routines or something else correlated with these routines, but we do know these routines are associated with a lower incidence of obesity," continues Anderson.
The good news for parents is that all three of the behaviors are pretty simple - things you can do in your own home, in your own way, to help your children. Not only will you be denying childhood obesity a hold on your child, you'll also be taking part in activities that have been shown to aid behavior and cognitive development.

3 Home Habits to Stay Slim Continued...
Even if you can't manage making all three steps part of your family routine, Anderson says that introducing at least one can have a positive impact. Or do one as much as possible for your lifestyle and schedule.
As a parent, you will need to make these behaviors a priority... perhaps limiting the number of activities or changing your own routine to make it work. You might start by trying the one behavior you think you'll be able to do most easily and watch the results. If you're already doing one (or more) of these, try adding another.
Young children aren't the only ones who can be encouraged to get their weight under control, as shown by another study set to appear in the same March 2010 issue of Pediatrics.
This work involved 81 obese teen girls enrolled in the Duke University Healthy Lifestyles Program who were randomly assigned to read an intervention novel about an obese heroine who learns about eating right, being active and thus improving her self esteem, or a control novel.
The girls who read the intervention novel were more likely to reduce their BMI percentile than those who read the control book, or a third group of subjects who didn't read anything.
Age appropriate fiction that addresses healthy behaviors might have potential as a supplement to a weight management program.
So parents, grandparents and others... if you're worried about childhood obesity, there are simple steps you can take to make a difference... starting tonight.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
