At the Explora’s auditorium on Friday March 19th.
From the medical point of view, overweight and obesity are abnormal and present a risk to health. Overweight is likely to cause a number of chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Once considered a problem only in high income countries, overweight and obesity are now dramatically on the rise even in low- and middle-income countries, particularly in urban settings. This conference, exclusively addressed to children the age of whom ranges from 6 to 16, shed lights on obesity and the risks it may trigger, as well as the rules to follow so as to prevent ourselves from the dangers of a bad and unbalanced nutrition.
