Innovative Childhood Obesity Practices
December 16, 2009
“CDC is monitoring national trends, developing policy and environmental strategies, and implementing innovative practices related to six target areas—increasing fruit and vegetable consumption, physical activity, and the initiation and duration of breastfeeding, and decreasing television viewing, consumption of energy dense, low nutritional value foods, and consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages. Through these activities CDC is striving to create supportive, healthful environments for children and their families to experience positive health outcomes throughout their lives.”
(Statement of Dr. William H. Dietz before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, Subcommittee on Health)
