Vital Signs: Obesity Among Low-Income, Preschool-Aged Children —
United States, 2008--2011 |
|
| |
|
The prevalence of obesity remains high among all youths, including preschool-aged children.
However, no statistically significant increase has been observed since 1999–2000. This report used data from 11.6 million low-income
children aged 2–4 years to examine trends
in obesity prevalence among
40 states, the District of Columbia,
and two territories. Small
but significant declines in obesity
among low-income preschoolers were observed
in 19 of the 43 states/territories. |
