Healthy Weight For Teens (90770)R
For presenting to teens ages 13-17
Every year, hundreds of thousands of people die from obesity-related health problems. It's true that most of these people are adults, but overweight teens are more likely to grow up to be overweight or obese as adults. That's why it's so important to start healthy habits now.
Today, about 15% of teens are obese, and more teens than ever are being diagnosed with health problems related to being overweight or obese. Even moderate weight gain can raise the risks for heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other serious conditions. But bringing one's weight down -- even a little -- can improve teens' health now and in the future.
This presentation will let you quickly and easily educate teens on:
- obesity and its risks
- body image and how the media affects it
- healthy eating habits
- the benefits of physical activity
- setting goals and putting a personalized health plan into action.
Package also includes 50 copies of the full-color photographically illustrated folder "Healthy Eating -- Looking Great, Feeling Great" (33935)A.
