About 1 in 5 U.S. children & teens have obesity. Newer research shows why we need to look beyond the scale: obesity involves energy balance, metabolism, biology & environment. This #ChildhoodObesityAwarenessMonth, we’re advancing the science behind the “why.” #MMPC

Childhood obesity is a growing metabolic health challenge. CDC estimates 21.1% of U.S. youth ages 2–19 had obesity in 2021–23, including 7% with severe obesity. Research into metabolism can help us understand risk, disease progression & treatment. #ChildhoodObesityAwarenessMonth
